Hi,

Can some one help me?
I have a data with 2 worksheet
1)Data source
2)Data with header

I would like to know how can i match the header with the data source and create the new worksheet using the herder name and copy the data into the new worksheet.

EX: Data source = a, b, c, d
Header =a,b, c, d
Worksheet with be created for a, b, c and d separately

By using the header i will copy all the header with a to worksheet a, b to worksheet b and so on.

I want the macro which can create a new sheet whenever a new header is added and i can update the data source manually.

Appreciate if some one can help on this.

I am not sure if all you were asking was to create new sheets, if not already existing
This is based on assumption that headers are on a row. If that a sheet which does not matches the sheet name does not exists, it will create a new sheet with that name


Sub CreateHeaderSheets()
Dim lHeaderRow As Long
Dim sMasterSheet As String
Dim iHeaderStartCol As Integer
Dim iHeaderCols As Integer
Dim iHeaderCol As Integer
Dim sHeader As String


    sMasterSheet = "Sheet1"
    lHeaderRow = 1
    iHeaderStartCol = 1
    
    iHeaderCols = Sheets(sMasterSheet).Cells(lHeaderRow, Columns.Count).End(xlUp).Column
    
    For iHeaderCol = iHeaderStartCol To iHeaderCols
    
        sHeader = Sheets(sMasterSheet).Cells(lHeaderRow, iHeaderCol)
            
        If sHeader <> "" Then
                
            On Error Resume Next
            
                Sheets(sHeader).Select
                
            On Error GoTo 0
            
            If ActiveSheet.Name <> sHeader Then
            
                Sheets.Add
                ActiveSheet.Name = sHeader
            
            End If
            
        End If
        
        
    Next iHeaderCol
        
End Sub

File not found. It has been either deleted, or it never existed at all.
