VBA to create multiple sheets based on the cells value

Create Multiple Sheets based on the cell value through VBA

Sub Addsheet()
'Declaring the Variables
Dim i As Integer
Dim LastRow As Integer

'Finding Last Row in Sheet1
LastRow = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(Worksheets("Sheet1").Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row

'Using For Loop to Add Sheets by Cell Value
For i = 1 To LastRow
Sheets.Add
ActiveSheet.Name = Worksheets("Sheet1").Cells(i, 1).Value
Next i

End Sub

Lets Discuss the above code:
  1. We have defined two variable "i" and "LastRow".
  2. LastRow find the the row in "Sheet1" from Column "A". Because the list of sheets names are stored in "A" column in "Sheet1".
  3. We have used for loop to create multiple sheets untill all the sheets are created.
