Hi, is it possible to copy a specific sheet and paste it to qa new sheet as values then save it to designated folder indicated in the cell?

so im trying to have a table reference/summary sheet of all the tabs/sheets that needs to be saved and the corresponding folder to save it.

is it possible to make it loop like if i need to add a new tab i won't need to add the tab name in the vba code or something.

Excel Facts

Will the fill handle fill 1, 2, 3?
Yes! Type 1 in a cell. Hold down Ctrl while you drag the fill handle.
i think i was able to solve by patching codes from other threads :)



VBA Code:
Sub SaveSheetsToFiles()
   
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
    Application.ScreenUpdating = False
   
   
    Dim SummarySheet As Worksheet
    Dim lastRow As Long
    Dim i As Long
    Dim SummaryMsg As String
       
       
    'Set the summary sheet
    Set SummarySheet = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Summary")
   
    'Find the last row with data in column A of the summary sheet
    lastRow = SummarySheet.Cells(SummarySheet.Rows.Count, "C").End(xlUp).Row
   
    'Loop through each row in the summary sheet
    For i = 2 To lastRow 'Assuming row 1 is header
        Dim sheetName As String
        Dim fileName As String
        Dim folderPath As String
       
        'Get the sheet name and folder path from the summary sheet
        sheetName = SummarySheet.Cells(i, "C").Value
        folderPath = SummarySheet.Cells(i, "E").Value
        fileName = SummarySheet.Cells(i, "D").Value
       
        'Check if the sheet exists in the workbook
        If SheetExists(sheetName) Then
            'Copy the sheet to a new workbook
            ThisWorkbook.Sheets(sheetName).Copy
           
            'Copy and paste values only
            With ActiveSheet.UsedRange
                .Value = .Value
            End With
           
            'Save the new workbook with the specified name and path
            ActiveWorkbook.saveas folderPath & "\" & fileName & ".xlsx"
                       
            ' Add sheet name to summary message
            SummaryMsg = SummaryMsg & sheetName & ">" & ActiveWorkbook.Name & " saved to " & folderPath & vbCrLf
               
            'Close the new workbook without saving changes to it
            ActiveWorkbook.Close False
               
        End If
  
 
    Next i
 
    ' Display summary message in a message box
    MsgBox "Sheets saved successfully:" & vbCrLf & SummaryMsg, vbInformation
 
End Sub
 
Function SheetExists(sheetName As String) As Boolean
    On Error Resume Next
    SheetExists = Not Sheets(sheetName) Is Nothing
    On Error GoTo 0
End Function

Glad you got it solved. For the future though, when posting vba code in the forum, please use the available code tags. It makes your code much easier to read/debug & copy. My signature block below has more details. I have added the tags for you this time. 😊
