Duplicating tabs

[Rehoboth]

Hi

I want to create 12 tabs on a file for 12 months. I want exactly the same fields in each but obviously being able to enter different values.

Is there a way of setting this up so that you don't have to create everything from scratch 12 times?

Thanks

Copy and paste?

Hi

Thanks for the suggestion. The difficulty I have had trying to do this is that I can only seem to copy one field at a time. When I 'select all' it does select all tabs and everything!

So one field at atime isn't really going to save me much time. Unless I am missing something.

Thanks

hold down shift when selecting a field -- lets you select many -- and take a look at view > Object toolbox or object size, the one with the numbers in it.. i forget what it's called.

Times like this you feel stupid! That worked thanks.

Only trouble is now that I have to make new fields to hold the content for the tab I have copied into. Do you know if there is anyway of automating this or something?

Example. 1st tab is April and second tab is may. both tabs need a field for "income' but need to hold seperate information.

There are over 100 fields on each tab, there are 12 tabs and 5 more tables like it! Need a short cut!

Thanks
