Splitting Excel Files
Could anyone help with a utility or method for automatically splitting an
Excel file into multiple files on each change in a subtotal value? And later for reassembling the files into one? I'd very much appreciate help with this, as splitting a master file into 75 individual teacher files has gotten tedious... Thanks! |

Splitting Excel Files
What you ask for is not a normal Excel thing, and maybe not even a very
practical thing considering the amount of VBA code it would probably take......maybe if you explained a little more about what you have and what you really want to end up with maybe some other feature like the Autofilter might just do what you need.........I use it regularly to filter out a massive database into smaller reports I wish to distribute.......perhaps it would work for you..........

Splitting Excel Files
I'm not sure how autofilter would help me--could you explain, please?
I'm starting with a list of about 1200 students, with a record for each combination of student and class/teacher. It's used by teachers to enter grades and comments. The list is supplied initially by our city-wide program system. It is essentially a compilation of all the class rosters in the school. Once sorted by teacher/course/section, I need to give each teacher his or her own file, containing only that teacher's records. After the teachers have made their entries, I need to recombine the files. The combined file then is imported to Access, where it becomes the basis of a report that gives each student a Progress Report. Thanks!

Ron (and CLR)...I thank you very much for the help...
Now I need a bit more. I used the code from your page, for creating new sheet for all unique values. However, when I try to run it, I get a "Compile error: invalid outside procedure" message at the line for Set WS1. What is likely to have caused that? Thanks!
