I was trying to export all sheets from one file today to separate workbooks. Reason is that I had to create a new file for each sheet in this file so I could import each workbook separately into a commissions application. Each sheet was a renewal schedule for a difficult regional vice president. I had to create about 10 files because I had 10 separate sheets in the main file. I didn't want to move each sheet, just copy each sheet into an individual workbook.

I looked around on the web for some vb code but couldn't find the exact code that I needed. I stumbled on this code I'm posting now which I would like to tweak. I would like to make it more dynamic and robust.

I remember there are forum rules regarding posting code but it has been a couple of years since I've posted a question on this forum. I apologize in the advance for not remembering the protocol.

Right now, the code is telling me where I can save the files but I would like to modify the code so that I can point to a location of my choice. Plus, I would like to make the replace the "Master Sheet" name with a generic name because I might have different sheet names I don't want to export.

Would this be difficult to do? Or, is their a more efficient code that is more dynamic?

Thank you for your help,

Michael

Thanks for the update.
I don't use cloud storage but you somehow should be able to make it work.
I would say that there must be examples around on how to make it work.
Good Luck
