    Change Directory Based on Worksheet Name

    I have a large number of worksheets in a workbook and a macro that will save each sheet individually to a folder of the worksheet name. The worksheet names range from AAXXX to AZXXX (where XXX is alphanumeric). In my I use the two following lines in the code to specify the directory and then the relevant folder within that directory to save the worksheets to, however I now need to save the worksheets to different subfolders based on the worksheet name.

    Please Login or Register  to view this content.
    So instread of having a load of folders inside C:\Client Jobs\Test\, named as per the worksheet name, I now have:

    C:\Client Jobs\Test\North
    C:\Client Jobs\Test\South
    C:\Client Jobs\Test\East
    C:\Client Jobs\Test\West

    and folders inside each as follows:

    North
    AAXXX to AJXXX

    South
    AKXXX to AQXXX

    East
    ARXXX to ARXXX

    West
    ATXXX to AZXXX

    How would I adapt the folder and file structure so that the relevant worksheets are saved in the correct folders, along the lines of

    IF (wsName) = AAXXX to AJXXX then mDir = C:\Client Jobs\Test\North

    ElseIf (wsName) = AKXXX to AQXXX then mDir = C:\Client Jobs\Test\South

    and so on.

    Many thanks
    Thanks,

    Re: Change Directory Based on Worksheet Name

    You could use code like this, based on the second letter of the name
