Hello,
I am a little bit a newby with VBA. I used a lot of the internet and by self exploring. Made the code a little bit messy.
Whats the problem: I get an Error and can't find the solution. I can send you a example of the worksheet.

In my worksheet Column 20 (T) is a schoolname. Column 18 (R) is their unique schoolcode.
The VBA code I got from internet will create a new folder with a new workbook for every unique value in the Column 18 (R) of the range.The workbooks will be saved with the value in the column 20 (T) + column 18 (r) into the newly created folder. It will also add a worksheet to the workbook named "RDBLogSheet" with hyperlinks to the newly created workbooks so it is easy to open the workbooks.

The problem is that some schoolnames exist out of two schools, like Ambeld LKZ Deltion College. That's why I want to save the worksheet also with the unique schoolcode.
Somehow, even when I use a VBA code for Removing Wrap Text (works well), it gives an error when the sheets is being saved.
The error says: "Rename every worksheet name that starts with "Error_" manually. There are characters in the name that are not allowed in the sheet or the worksheet already exist"
I know definitely that the worksheet does not already exist.

I tried with no success to delete the format of the cells, a different notation (text instead of standard), to create an error in a cell that worked fine (add the same text and format).
PLEASE HELP!!!

The vba code I use:
Option Explicit
'<<<< Create a new workbook for every unique value >>>>>
'This example will create a new folder for you and will create
'a new workbook with the data of every unique value in this folder.
'The workbooks will be saved with the Unique value in the new folder.
'It will also add a worksheet to your workbook named "RDBLogSheet" with
'hyperlinks to the workbooks so it is easy to open the workbooks.
'Every time you run the macro it delete this worksheet first so the information is up to date.
'Note: this example use the function LastRow in the ModReset module
Sub Copy_To_Workbooks()
