Adding New Worksheets from a List Box Collection if Specific Value Selected

Some background: there are 2 worksheets, one with a list of employee names/information, and one with delivery records (each delivery was made by one of the employees on the other sheet)

I have made a listbox with the employee names off the first sheet. Based on the selection from the listbox, I would like to insert a new worksheet for the employee selected that lists all the deliveries they made (off the delivery sheet). There is also an "all employees" option in the listbox that should insert a sheet for every employee.

It would probably be better to have your "All Employees" selection as a checkbox rather than a value in your listbox -- but that is just personal preference. If you decided to go this route, you can use the CheckBox_Click event to disable your listbox completely if it was checked.

Anyways, to your actual question. You can first check if the value of your list box = All Employees using this line of code:

If Me.ListBox1.Value = "All Employees" Then

Once you have verified the above is true, then you can get the total count of the items in your listbox with .ListCount and loop through each list item:

For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1

For each item in the loop, ensure that you are not adding a worksheet named All Employees:

If .List(i) <> "All Employees" Then

and once that final test passes, create a new worksheet and name it to the value of your list box:

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()



    With Me.ListBox1

        If .Value = "All Employees" Then

            Dim i As Long

            For i = 0 To .ListCount - 1

                If .List(i) <> "All Employees" Then

                    ThisWorkbook.Worksheets.Add.Name = .List(i)

                End If

            Next

        End If

    End With



End Sub

I assume this should be checked when you press a command button - so I've added it to that particular event.

Miscellaneous Notes

Since you didn't mention the name of your listbox, I used the generic name ListBox1 in the code. You will have to change that to the name of your actual listbox if it's different.

You may also have to update the name of your CommandButton1 in the above code if the button's name you press to populate the sheets is different.

Thanks so much, this helped a lot and worked perfectly! Using that same structure I was able to add in an ELSE with the code for other listbox selections too.
