    Splitting names in to sheets in alphabetical order

    Dear friends

    Hai i have attached one excel file there ,a macro will split all the names to different sheets by creating sheets with names as alphabets..
    I want certain things to be done over here

    1 Only first column of names are populated in other sheets but what ever columns available in the name sheet ,that should also come in to the sheets
    2 the names are coming in the first column of all the sheets,but serial no should be generated in all the sheets
    3 only if i dont add serial no in the name sheet it works ,otherwise if i add sl no in the name sheet,sheets are getting created with names as 1 2 3 ,etc
    4 after creating different sheets ,individual excel books should be formed with names as sheets names and these individual excel files should be saved in the folder d:/siva
    5 presently it is not auto fitting ,all columns should be autofit

    Please kindly help to modify this macro ...

    Re: Splitting names in to sheets in alphabetical order

    Hello catchnanan,

    I have added a button to the "Names" sheet. It will run the macro below which creates a new workbook for each name. The serial number appears in "A1" and row 2 will display the name and information associated with it.

    Re: Splitting names in to sheets in alphabetical order

    thank u very much for your response....but i am sorry ...did u run my macro? then u will get exactly what i need
    here names say MARTIN ,JOSEPH,EDWARD ,ETC are in the name sheet ...my macro will create sheets with names "A","B","C"......etc
    and these names starting with A will settle in to the sheet "A" and so on ....
    what i importantly need is the information which are associated also should go and serial no should be created in all the sheets

    Can u see my macro and correct it accordingly ,,,

    Re: Splitting names in to sheets in alphabetical order

    Hai alf ,jindon ,leith ross ,thank u very much for all your assistance...
    I am very happy that one major problem of bringing other columns in to the sheets is solved..
    As i told earlier ,two drawbacks (still exists) of these macro are
    1) after shooting of names to other sheets,the names are displayed in all the sheets without serial numbers 1,2,3,ets
    2) In the sheet "names" the macro does not have the control over which column it is considering to break the names,
    by default ,it takes the first used column and it splits according to what is available in the first used column (for example if serial no is present in the first column,it splits these serial numbers and generates sheets like 1,2,3,4 etc)which is wrong ...It will be very fine it should always take from second column and also mainly cell B2 because it should leave space for title ,otherwise title name also go to some sheets...
    So only if the first column is entirely empty ,it takes the names in the second column so i am unable to add serial numbers or any other things in the first column...

    Re: Splitting names in to sheets in alphabetical order

    thank u soooo much .It is amazing

    I am sorry to disturb u friend ,is there any way to create message box which asks us "Do u wnt to clr the old data?" depending upon yes or no ,it should either clear the existing data in all the sheets and replaces with the new one when the macro is run otherwise when the macro is run the date should be added to the existing data in the sheets.
