I lost the will to live halfway through your code but it seems that you are altering an existing worksheet to create a new one. Why not simply start with a new blank one? In any case it would be better not to open the existing workbook, but to create a new one from it. That would be at least the ideal starting point.

You can change the macro I posted code not to open the workbook, but to add a workbook using it as a template. That workbook will be unnamed, so you will need to save it before closing it.
