AnaPistol This macro checks if there alreay is a worksheet for the current month. If not it creates one. If there is, it selects it:

Sub AddMonthSheet()
    Dim sName As String
    Dim oSh As Worksheet
    sName = Format(Date, "yyyy-mmm")
    On Error Resume Next
    Set oSh = Worksheets(sName)
    If oSh Is Nothing Then
        Set oSh = Worksheets.Add
    End If
    oSh.Name = sName
    oSh.Activate
End Sub

JKPieterse I am not looking for any reporting afterwards. We are looking at each sheet in the month it occurs. There will be too much data on one sheet to put all the months on one sheet. But thank you for your suggestion.
