worksheet question

Hi,
I am quite new to this so go easy !,
I have the code (donted - thanks) below that will create a new worksheet
with the name changed to some data input by the user.
my question is it possible to 'format' parts of this worksheet ie show data
in cell B13 as 'bold' and to add three 'heading's to 3 different cells.
so by default I want the newly created worksheet to have the following
'standard' settings.
cells D13:D17 and F13:F17 to be formatted to show values in £
cell D12 to show the word "PRICE" in bold size 12
cell B25 to be text size 20 in colour red and also bold.

is this possible - if so how??
oh yes here is the code I have

Sub NewSheet()
Dim x As Worksheet
Dim y As Worksheet
Dim z As Variant

Set x = ActiveSheet
With Sheets.Add
ActiveSheet.Name = x.Range("B2")
Set y = ActiveSheet

z = Array(x.Range("B2"), x.Range("B4")
y.Range("B3") = z(0) 'NAME
y.Range("D3") = z(1) 'BOOKING REF

End With
MsgBox "Thank You, Order Created Successfully !", vbInformation


End Sub

many many thanks

Anthony,

Although the code could put all the stuff in the sheet, you could also just
make a sheet to use as a basis, and copy it when you need a new one. That
way, when you change the layout (or formatting, or whatever) of the sheet,
as you will, mark my words, you won't have to change a bunch of code. You
could hide the sheet.

Sub NewInvoice()
Sheets("Invoice master").Visible = True
Sheets("Invoice Master").Copy After:=ActiveSheet
'ActiveSheet.Name =
Sheets("Invoice Master").Visible = False
