I wouldn't do this.

If I can keep all the data in one worksheet and apply data|Filter|autofilter, it
makes life much simpler. Train the managers how to use filter and you'll find
that it's something that they can use on lots of worksheets.

As soon as you put the data in separate worksheets, you're gonna find that the
someone will update their copy and want you to update the original--and they
won't tell you want record needs to be changed--or how they changed it. This
can make life miserable!

But if you must, maybe you could use a program (on demand) that would move or
copy your data.

I'd borrow some code from Debra Dalgleish's site:
http://www.contextures.com/excelfiles.html

Create New Sheets from Filtered List -- uses an Advanced Filter to create
separate sheet of orders for each sales rep visible in a filtered list; macro
automates the filter. AdvFilterRepFiltered.xls 35 kb

Ron de Bruin has an addin that may do what you want right out of the box:

If you're new to macros, you may want to read David McRitchie's intro at:

The filters are not what I need. I need this to be on separate reports which
are automatically generated when a row is added to the main sheet.

I am interested in going the macros route since I don't have tons of time to
spend trying to figure this out. Please respond with instructions assuming
that I know nothing about the procedures for using macros. That would be a
correct assumption.

Thanks so much for your help.

Lorie,

You could use one sheet and apply data filters, or you could use a macro to
create the additional sheets from the main sheet.

If you want the macro, post back.

I have a main spreadsheet that has rows of data for each project managar.
Each project manager may have multiple rows of data in the main
spreadsheet.
I would like to make new worksheets for each project manager with all
their
rows of data from the main spreadsheet. I would like to make this all
automatic since my end-users are not very computer savvy. I tried pivot
tables, but I don't want the data to sum; I want it to list. Is this
possible? I tried looking at some past postings (I saw one referenced
from
1/10/05). They were too complex for me.
