Hello,
Is it possible to copy an Excel 07 spreadsheet to another window spreadsheet (not another tab but completely different spreadsheet) and keep the formulas in tact?

I can keep the formatting but the formulas and calculations always disappear.

but while copying to another workbook, it does not keep the formulas, it just copied the values. In my case I want to retain the forumula as well.
Kindly suggest

You mean to a different workbooks(file).

keep the file to which you want the sheet is to be copied, open

right click the sheet stab. click "move or copy"
in the move or copy window check "create a copy" at the bottom
go the to the arrow at the top next to "to book" window.
your other file name will be there. click it
you will be asked where do you want to copy after sheet1 etc or at the end
choose.
and click ok

this does not save the formulas

Move or copy works but the formulas will still point to the old worksheet(file)

Yes, I agree, how can you avoid the formulas poiting/linking to the old file?

after you paste to new sheet. go to Data Tab choose "edit link" then click "change source" , find the workbook you paste to.
