I'm surprised I haven’t been able to find the solution floating around online. There have been several similar questions asked but more complicated parts involved. This is really to prep the workbook. Sheet1 ColA has a list of section numbers. I need it rename the worksheets to each of the section numbers. They will need to stay in order and create more sheets if needed. Leaving exactly one sheet for every section number.
This is some code that I found but don't fully understand. It seems close and I just need to modify it to use ColA instead of the column with the header "Last_Name".
Sub MakeSectionSheets()
Dim rLNColumn As Range
Dim rCell As Range
Dim sh As Worksheet
Dim shDest As Worksheet
Dim rNext As Range
Const sNUMB As String = "Last_Name"
Set sh = ThisWorkbook.Sheets("Sheet1")
Set rLNColumn = sh.UsedRange.Find(sNUMB, , xlValues, xlWhole)
'Make sure you found something
If Not rLNColumn Is Nothing Then
'Go through each cell in the column
For Each rCell In Intersect(rLNColumn.EntireColumn, sh.UsedRange).Cells
'skip the header and empty cells
If Not IsEmpty(rCell.Value) And rCell.Address <> rLNColumn.Address Then
'see if a sheet already exists
On Error Resume Next
Set shDest = sh.Parent.Sheets(rCell.Value)
On Error GoTo 0
'if it doesn't exist, make it
If shDest Is Nothing Then
Set shDest = sh.Parent.Worksheets.Add
shDest.Name = rCell.Value
End If
'Find the next available row
Set rNext = shDest.Cells(shDest.Rows.count, 1).End(xlUp).Offset(1, 0)
'Copy and paste
Intersect(rCell.EntireRow, sh.UsedRange).Copy rNext
'reset the destination sheet
Set shDest = Nothing
End If
Next rCell
End If
End Sub
