Hi Folks,

I have a macro that my team run that creates a workbook with lots of worksheets. We need to be able to separate out those worksheets into separate files as part of the macro. I did find this online but it separates out the sheets in the workbook the macro is run from and not the workbook it creates as part of the macro.

Workbook that contains the macro is called Macro and the workbook it creates is called Commission.

Can anyone help me?

Excel Facts

Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Try
Code:
For Each xWs In Workbooks("Commission.[COLOR=#ff0000]xlsm[/COLOR]").Worksheets
Change file extension if needed.

Thats great Fluff. Thanks so much.

Is there anyway at all for one of the sheets to be ignored when separating out the files. It's not needed. It no problem if not but would be nice.

Thanks.

You can do that like
Code:
For Each xWs In Workbooks("Commission.xlsm").Worksheets
   If xWs.Name <> "Summary" Then
      xWs.Copy
      Application.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileName:=xPath & "\" & xWs.Name & ".xlsx"
      Application.ActiveWorkbook.Close False
   End If
Next xWs
