Hi all,

I'm struggling with this, I need to split this document so I get a CSV for each unique site formatted as per below.. Users will be in multiple sites

Current
Export DataUsernameSite NameCurrent PermNew Group
site_exampleSite_SiteManagerexampleUser
exampleSite
siteManagerGG_exampleSite_exampleUser_Modify
site_exampleSite_SiteReadexampleUser1
exampleSiteBlah
siteReadGG_exampleSiteBlah_exampleUser_Read
site_exampleSite_SiteContributeexampleUser2exampleSitesiteContributeGG_exampleSite_exampleUser2_Modify
site_exampleSiteBlah_SiteManagerexampleUserBlah
exampleSiteBlah
siteContributeGG_exampleSiteBlah_exampleUserBlah_Modify
site_exampleSiteBlah_SiteReadexampleUserBlah1
exampleSiteBlah
siteReadGG_exampleSiteBlah_exampleUserBlah1_Read
site_exampleSiteBlah_SiteContributeexampleUserBlah2exampleSitesiteContributeGG_exampleSite_exampleUser2Blah_Modify

Desired
CSV file for each unique siteName formatted as per:
Group (contains New Group data)User-Name (Contains Username data)
GG_exampleSite_exampleUser_ModifyexampleUser
GG_exampleSiteBlah_exampleUser_ReadexampleUser1


Edit, the end goal is to do an AD Import to add users to their respective groups based on the sitename and permission level required.

You can teach Excel a new custom list. Type the list in cells, File, Options, Advanced, Edit Custom Lists, Import, OK
try this,
VBA Code:
Sub output_to_textfile()
mypath = "C:\test\"

For r = 2 To Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
    data = Cells(r, "E") & "," & Cells(r, "B")
    Open mypath & Cells(r, "C") & ".csv" For Append As #1
    Print #1, data
    Close #1

Next r
 
MsgBox "Done"

End Sub

That looks to work perfectly thanks!

On second thoughts, it'd probably be better to have them generated as separate csv's like they are currently, and then also combined into one big one, would make AD import MUCH easier? Any chance of adding that functionality - Much appreciated!

Sub output_to_textfile()
mypath = "C:\test\"
all_text=""

For r = 2 To Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
data = Cells(r, "E") & "," & Cells(r, "B")
Open mypath & Cells(r, "C") & ".csv" For Append As #1
Print #1, data
Close #1
all_text=alltext & data & vbcr & vblf
Next r

Open mypath & "all.csv" For Append As #1
Print #1, all_text
Close #1


MsgBox "Done"

In the all.csv output it doesn't seem to insert the data correctly.

Left side of screenshot is the all.csv vs the right side which shows the individual sheets.
