HI all

I have a small problem I can't solve:

I have a workbook of 50 worksheets. Each worksheet in the workbook has
different data. I want to save each individual worksheet out as a
stand-alone xls file.

When I go to save each of the worksheets , I find that excel saves the
whole work book.

How can I save the contents of individual worksheets as discrete files ,
containing just the data in the individual worksheet?

Grateful for any help.
Best WishesColin

Colin,

You could right click individual sheet tabs, move or copy to new book (new
file)

Hi Ron

OK I tried this. I pasted the code from your page into my macro and
hoped it would take each of the 50 sheets in turn and save them out as
individual xls files. They're just numbered 1-50.

Unfortunately , it only saved three files , all of them empty! I'm doing
something wrong , clearly. I'll try again.
