    Exporting sheets to FlatFiles in workbook

    I have a code I have been using to export my sheets in Workbook as flatfiles; to just keep the values without the formulas. It is working fine but I am looking to amend the code to only export specific pages in each Workbook. What do I add in my code to specify certain sheets to export?

    Macro loops through all sheets in workbook

    Then you could add an "If" statment checking sheet name and let macro work on the specified sheets.

    Thanks Alf.
    Actually is there anyway I can just export my whole workbook without formulas, and keeping the original with the macros/formulas??

    You could loop through all he sheets in the workbook and use this command to change all formulas to value

    Will this save it under one workbook? versus individual sheets?
    I am hoping to just replicate the workbook with only values without impacting the original workbook.

    Not sure of what you do mean. The command line will convert all formulas to values but this works only on the active sheet, so after looping through all sheets in a workbook you will have a workbook that contains only values and no formulas.

    You can then select to save each sheet as a separate workbook, or save the "whole" workbook.

    Not sure I read your code right but it seems to me that the code loops through every sheet in your "Master" file and saves each sheet as a separete file with sheet name as fil name.

    If this is so perhaps you could just loop through your master file, checking sheet name and delet the one do not wish to keep and transfer formulas to values for the other sheets. Then you save this modified file with a new name and as an xlsx file to get rid of the macro as well. This way you will still keep your original "Master" file intact.

    Macro something like this perhaps:
