Q. I often have to move several Excel worksheets from one workbook to another. I use the conventional copy-and-paste technique (Ctrl-C, Ctrl-P). While it works, it’s a real drag. Isn’t there a better way?
A. Yes. And the solution, you may be surprised to learn, is a drag, too, but not in the sense that it’s a bummer; you can literally drag worksheets from one workbook to another—in effect copying the dragged sheet into the other workbook.
To accomplish such a move, open both workbooks and then arrange them so they appear in the same screen. To do that, click on Window, Arrange and select Horizontal ; then click on OK . Using your mouse, arrange the workbooks so that you can see the tabs of both workbooks. Then simply click and drag the sheet tab from one workbook to another.
