I am trying to move or copy a sheet from one excel workbook to another one. Each time I try and do this, Excel crashes. What can I do to avoid this?

I am trying to move or copy a sheet from one excel workbook to another one.
Each time I try and do this, Excel crashes. What can I do to avoid this?

Can you give a little more detail? For instance:

Does this happen only with one sheet or with any sheet?

If not, does this happen with two new workbooks, or just one (or two)?

Are the workbooks in .xlsx or .xls format?

Does the sheet have links to other worksheets?

The files are in .xlsx format. This happens with any sheet that I am trying to move. I have quite a few workbooks and it's important to be able to transfer sheets between them. Any time I try and transfer them, it crashes.

What about my other questions?

And have you updated Office 2008?

FWLIW, I can't reproduce a problem on my machines (Leopard, MacBook Pro)

Yes, this is the new Office 2008. I just ran a software update on my Mac and nothing popped up for office. Is there another route?

As far as your other questions, the sheets are all copies of one another. Before I upgraded to 2008, I could create a new sheet with a button on the page...but with 2008 this function doesn't work anymore. I didn't create this workbook so I'm not sure how this master page template was created.
