Excel VBA Data Splitter – Automatically Split Data Into Multiple Sheets

Excel VBA Data Splitter by Column – One Click Sheet Generator

Description

This Excel VBA template allows you to automatically split data into multiple worksheets based on any selected column — with no column limits.

The tool prompts the user to select:

  • A header row

  • A criteria column (such as Department, Category, Status, etc.)



Each unique value in the selected column is placed into its own worksheet, with headers preserved. The template adapts automatically if more columns are added in the future.



An additional one-click cleanup macro is included to delete all generated sheets except the original Data sheet, allowing the process to be safely repeated.



Key Features

  • Unlimited columns supported (future-proof)

  • User-selected header and criteria column

  • Automatically creates and names sheets

  • Preserves original headers

  • One-click cleanup macro

  • No formulas, no add-ins required
