How to write a lot of sheets from one excel file to multiple files?

Hi,

 

I have one excel file with multiple sheets. How can I take each sheet and output it to its own .xslx file. I would want to keep the same sheet name as the file name.

 

Thanks!

Hi @jonnyrask ,

 

Here is a suggestion showing how to do it.

1. Input - option 'List of sheet names' to get all sheets available

2. Formula - create the filename for the dynamic input

3. Dynamic input - read all sheets from the file - all sheets must have the same structure of columns to work

4. Formula - create the filename for the output.

 

Best,

Hi, I think you uploaded the wrong file, because nothing has changed. Thanks!
