Try this:

Sub ExportDatabaseToSeparateSheets()
'Export is based on the value in the desired column
Dim myCell As Range
Dim mySht As Worksheet
Dim myName As String
Dim myArea As Range
Dim myShtName As String
Dim KeyCol As Integer

myShtName = ActiveSheet.Name
KeyCol = InputBox("What column # within database to use as key?")

Set myArea = ActiveCell.CurrentRegion.Columns(KeyCol).Offset(1, 0).Cells

Set myArea = myArea.Resize(myArea.Rows.Count - 1, 1)

For Each myCell In myArea
On Error GoTo NoSheet
myName = Worksheets(myCell.Value).Name
GoTo SheetExists:
NoSheet:
Set mySht = Worksheets.Add(Befo=Worksheets(1))
mySht.Name = myCell.Value
With myCell.CurrentRegion
.AutoFilter Field:=KeyCol, Criteria1:=myCell.Value
.SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy _
mySht.Range("A1")
mySht.Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
.AutoFilter
End With
Resume
SheetExists:
Next myCell

End Sub

I forgot where I got this...probably this DG.
Let me know if you have any questions.
