Hi,
I have a worksheet with multiple reports in it. Each report has report name, description and columns, I've copied a sample below. How can create a new workbook for each report.

Thanks!

do a loop that finds each occurance of the word 'summary'

the first occurance is the row of the "header", and the
line above the next is th e"footer", if there's no next
then the "footer" row wll be the last row +2

now you know the first and last row of the data, just
copy then to a new sheet.

here's a few lines of code that worked ok with your
snippet:-

Sub Extract()
Dim sFind As String
Dim ThisWS As Worksheet
Dim NewWS As Worksheet
Dim StartCell As Range
Dim NextCell As Range
Dim firstAdd As String
Dim firstrow As Long
Dim lastrow As Long
sFind = "Summary"
Set ThisWS = ActiveSheet

Set StartCell = ThisWS.Cells.Find(sFind)

If Not StartCell Is Nothing Then
firstAdd = StartCell.Address
Do
firstrow = StartCell.Row
Set NextCell = ThisWS.Cells.FindNext
(StartCell)

If NextCell Is Nothing Or NextCell.Address =
firstAdd Then
lastrow = ThisWS.Range("A65000").End
(xlUp).Row + 2
Else
lastrow = NextCell.Row - 1
End If

Set NewWS = Worksheets.Add

ThisWS.Range(firstrow & ":" & lastrow).Copy
NewWS.Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteAll

Set StartCell = NextCell
Loop Until StartCell.Address = firstAdd Or
StartCell Is Nothing

End If





End Sub

Thanks Patrick, the code you provided was awesome and it does amlost exactly what I need it to do. The only problem is it doesn't pick up the first and last reports. I received a 'Method Range of object worksheet failed error'. I did get a new sheet for 6 of the 8 reports on the spreadsheet.

There's a slight problem if your data starts in A1 (or row 1, I bet).

Try changing this line:

Set StartCell = ThisWS.Cells.Find(sFind)

to:

With ThisWS
Set StartCell = .Cells.Find(sFind, after:=.Cells(.Cells.Count))
End With

Then you'll be working from the top, down.

(In fact, I'd specify almost every option in the .find:

With ThisWS
Set StartCell = .Cells.Find(what:=sFind, _
after:=.Cells(.Cells.Count), _
LookIn:=xlValues, _
lookat:=xlPart, _
searchdirection:=xlNext, _
searchorder:=xlByRows, _
MatchCase:=False)
End With

..find is one of those things that remembers the last .find's parms--even if the
user did it manually.
