For the example subroutine below, I had the original csv file named
"multiYr.csv" and located it in the folder "C:\Test". The subroutine
creates muliple csv files from the sections separated by a blank line and
saves them with names "myTemp0.csv", "myTemp1.csv", myTemp2.csv, etc and
locates these new csv files in C:\Temp along with the larger original. For
each of these csv files, a new workbook is created. You would locate the
subroutine in a module, run it and then manually move through the windows
and do a 'File SaveAs' for each, giving it an appropriate name and
location.

Hi,

I have a csv file which has a number of datasets (for several years) ,
each yearly datasets are separated by a blank row. Can anyone please
suggest an easy way to convert this dataset to an excel file for each
individual year?

thanks in advance
