How do I separate worksheets in a workbook into individual files?
 

How do I separate worksheets in a workbook into individual files?
 

Try this:

Right click on the sheet tab
Select: Move or Copy
Then follow the prompts. You can either create a copy of the sheet or
actually move the sheet to a new workbook.

Does that help?

Regards,
Ron

How do I separate worksheets in a workbook into individual files?
 

jmd

You could follow Ron's advice and do it manually or use a macro.

Sub Make_New_Books()
Dim w As Worksheet
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each w In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
w.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileName:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & w.Name
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Next w
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

If not familiar with VBA and macros, see David McRitchie's site for more on
"getting started".

In the meantime..........

To create a General Module, hit ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor.

Hit CRTL + R to open Project Explorer.

Find your workbook/project and select it.

Right-click and InsertModule. Paste the above code in there. Save the
workbook and hit ALT + Q to return to your workbook.

Run the macro by going to ToolMacroMacros.
