Separating a master file into many workbooks
Hello,
I have a excel file call "Master", which contains names and policy number, insured. What I want to do is somehow create a new workbook based on the change of a name and name the file based on the name column. For example I may have a name "John Smith" policyNumber z3333, "Athena" for the insured. I would copy and past the row(s) (can be 1 or 50 rows) and past it to a new workbook and name the file "John Smith". When the name is different for example "Linda Parks" in the "Master" I would then copy the rows and paste it into new workbook and call the workbook "Linda Parks". This is a drag, especially when you have to copy and past to 15 different workbooks. There is has to be another way. Any tips or visit a website will be greatly appreciate. Thank you in advance. cheers |
