What version do you have? If 2019 or beyond, there's a FILTER function : support.microsoft.com

Failing that, I'd suggest filtering the complete file and then pasting to separate sheets.
Or have separate sheets for each office and set a macro (just record what you do) to run each time. Checking that any selection of results is either generically coded, or selects way more than you'll ever likely need.

Oh, thanks both. Filter looks handy, not sure VLookup will work as it's not a sorted list - but they're a couple of good ideas to set my brain at tomorrow :)

Fizz :-)
It’s xlookup - newer and better (although the experts on here would probably disagree :-) )

Ah, well spotted. Never used (or heard of) xlookup so that's something to play with. Cheers all!

Vlookup doesn't need a sorted list if you use the ,false) final clause.

Though index(match) is technically better I believe - I usually forget the syntax though!

I do index(match) automatically. I haven't looked at xlookup yet though.

Hi All
I have a spreadsheet that I download and then need to seperate in to multiple sheets as per the info in column A is there a way to do this via a macro or VBA ?

Currently I am filtering and copy / paste which is a pain.

I also do Index match automatically. Xlookup looks good although given its not in 2016 or 2019 I'll probably stick with Index match.
