Please give this a try and let me know if you get the desired output.
Sub FilterAndCopy() Dim wsData As Worksheet Dim dws As Worksheet Dim lr As Long Dim x As Variant Dim dict As Object Dim it As Variant Dim i As Long Application.ScreenUpdating = False Set wsData = Worksheets("Sheet1") lr = wsData.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row x = wsData.Range("A2:A" & lr).Value Set dict = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary") For i = 1 To UBound(x, 1) dict.Item(x(i, 1)) = "" Next i For Each it In dict.keys On Error Resume Next Set dws = Worksheets(CStr(it)) dws.Cells.Clear On Error GoTo 0 If dws Is Nothing Then Set dws = Worksheets.Add(after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count)) dws.Name = it End If With wsData.Range("A1").CurrentRegion .AutoFilter field:=1, Criteria1:=it wsData.Range("C2:I" & lr).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy dws.Range("A1") .AutoFilter End With Set dws = Nothing Next it Application.ScreenUpdating = True End Sub
Please click the button called "Filter And Copy" on Sheet1 in the attached to run the code.
Hi attached is a file similar to the one I am working with.
My aim is for the VBA to filter in 'Sheet 1' column A for 1
If there is corresponding data copy and paste from C-I (excluding headers) in sheet '1'
If not do not copy anything over.
Then filter column A for 2
If there is corresponding data copy and paste from C-I (excluding headers) in sheet '2'
If not do not copy anything over.
And so on.
Hopefully this makes more sense.
Thanks!

Sub FilterAndCopy()
Dim wsData As Worksheet
Dim dws As Worksheet
Dim lr As Long
Dim x As Variant
Dim dict As Object
Dim it As Variant
Dim i As Long
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Set wsData = Worksheets("Sheet1")
lr = wsData.Cells(Rows.Count, "A").End(xlUp).Row
x = wsData.Range("A2:A" & lr).Value
Set dict = CreateObject("Scripting.Dictionary")
For i = 1 To UBound(x, 1)
dict.Item(x(i, 1)) = ""
Next i
For Each it In dict.keys
On Error Resume Next
Set dws = Worksheets(CStr(it))
dws.Cells.Clear
On Error GoTo 0
If dws Is Nothing Then
Set dws = Worksheets.Add(after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count))
dws.Name = it
End If
With wsData.Range("A1").CurrentRegion
.AutoFilter field:=1, Criteria1:=it
wsData.Range("C2:I" & lr).SpecialCells(xlCellTypeVisible).Copy dws.Range("A1")
.AutoFilter
End With
Set dws = Nothing
Next it
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub

Yes thats great thanks. I do have one other query:
If there was already data in the sheets the data is being copied into, is there a way to paste it below that data?
Thanks so much!

Perfect thank you, out of interest and for potential future reference is it possible to use offsets within this code in order to move the paste range up/down/left/right?
Thanks.
