Hello, everyone,
I ask for your cooperation because I have difficulty with one part in making a particular macro.
I've found many ways to copy multiple worksheets into a new workbook, but then I have to leave specific data in it.
Explanation:
I have a master workbook with 86 sheets, 28 of them already 6 years accumulates information for each month and the file becomes very large.
After choosing the desired 28 worksheets, I copy them into a new workbook and then by criteria in column A1 (here are the months and years), I start filtering which months to delete and which month to leave with all the information.
I try to make a pop up window in which if I want to leave for example 02/2018 everything else to be deleted, according to its length in each sheet and leave the information for the chosen month / year.
Once I've deleted everything, I have to navigate to the desired location on my computer and save the file.
I've made a macro, but it works only on manual criteria. I just do not know how to automate it.
I would be grateful for any assistance.
Greetings

Not everything I do at work revolves around Excel. Only the fun parts.
Hello,
I'm uploading two tables: the first is the base table where I add up every month.
In the second I wanted to leave only the month of 02.2018.
What I do (or at least I try to do) - after copying all the desired worksheets, I start deleting in every one of the other months and years until I'm left with 02.2018. The next month I will do the same, but then I will delete everything and leave the info for 03.2018 and so on.
If you have questions, I'm ready to answer, I just can not handle it.
Thank you in advance!
