No I wasn't. I just used the method a bit different to you. It seems that
there are two possible ways a XWorksheets object is used. First is your use
case in which you specify to copy all sheets. I, in contrast, didn't know
that was possible and used the syntax provided by the bug report:
Sheets(Array(1,2,3)).Copy Before:=Sheets(2) which works fine because a new
worksheets object is created and you don't modify your own container.

Nevertheless my method doesn't work fine and I appreciate your help and will
rework my method. I'll have a look at your pseudo code and think a bit how I
can rework both copy methods.

Regards,
Markus
