Sheet2


This is just a small sample to illustrate what I am trying to achieve.

I have thousands of rows of data on one sheet. I need to split this data out based on whether the word "end" appears in column E. So in the above, A2:A13 would be copied to a new worksheet.

Then A14:A25 would be copied to a new sheet.

And so on. So the flow would be (i) identify first range to be copied, (ii) add a new worksheet, (iii) paste the data.

Any pointers appreciated.
 

Excel Facts

When did Power Query debut in Excel?
Although it was an add-in in Excel 2010 & Excel 2013, Power Query became a part of Excel in 2016, in Data, Get & Transform Data.
I have assumed that the last row of your actual data will also have an "end" in column E.
If that is not the case then please advise what should happen to the last block of data that has no "end"

Try this with a copy of your workbook.

VBA Code:
Sub New_Sheets()
  Dim fr As Long, i As Long
  Dim rend As Range
  
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  With Sheets("Sheet2")
    fr = 2
    Set rend = .Columns("E").Find(What:="end")
    Do
      i = i + 1
      Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Name = "New " & i
      .Rows(fr & ":" & rend.Row).Copy Destination:=Sheets(Sheets.Count).Range("A1")
      fr = rend.Row + 1
      Set rend = .Columns("E").Find(What:="end", After:=rend)
    Loop Until rend.Row < fr
  End With
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

    Loop Until rend.Row < fr
  End With
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
That works perfectly.

Assume that the last row of data has no "end", what amendments to this code are needed to capture the last block of data (from the last "end" to the last row)?

Was there supposed to be a suggestion or question included in your post?

This should work whether or not the last row has an "end"

VBA Code:
Sub New_Sheets_v2()
  Dim fr As Long, i As Long, lrD As Long
  Dim rend As Range
 
  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  lrD = Range("D" & Rows.Count).End(xlUp).Row
  With Sheets("Sheet2")
    fr = 2
    Set rend = .Columns("E").Find(What:="end")
    Do
      i = i + 1
      Sheets.Add(After:=Sheets(Sheets.Count)).Name = "New " & i
      .Rows(fr & ":" & rend.Row).Copy Destination:=Sheets(Sheets.Count).Range("A1")
      If rend.Row = lrD Then Exit Do
      fr = rend.Row + 1
      Set rend = .Columns("E").Find(What:="end", After:=rend)
      If rend.Row < fr Then Set rend = Range("E" & lrD)
    Loop Until rend.Row < fr
  End With
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

      fr = rend.Row + 1
      Set rend = .Columns("E").Find(What:="end", After:=rend)
      If rend.Row < fr Then Set rend = Range("E" & lrD)
    Loop Until rend.Row < fr
  End With
  Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
That's very impressive and works perfectly - thank you very much :)
