Copying Rows Based on Column Value

[HalfBaked01]

Hello,

New here, I attempted to search for a solution but could not find what I was looking for so thank you in advance.

I am trying to write VBA code to copy rows of data based on a value into a new sheet and save this sheet with a cell value name

Date Header	Company Header	Total Amount Header	Invoice Number	Invoice Amount
1/17/18	ABC Company	$1,000	12345	$100
			12346	$900
1/17/18	BCD Company	$500
1/17/18	CDE Company	$450	ABC123	-1745

<tbody>
</tbody>

Above is a sample of what the data looks like, I am attempting to copy based on separate payments that were received.

A few notes;
Company Header will have duplicates
Total Amount could be duplicate but highly unlikely
Invoice Number could be blank
Invoice amount could be blank

Below is how I would like it to look saved as a separate file based on Company name;

Date Header	Company Header	Total Amount Header	Invoice Number	Invoice Amount
1/17/18	ABC Company	$1,000	12345	$100
			12346	$900

<tbody>
</tbody>

Again, thank you for your help

I've tried a few things, I can copy the names down and search by that but I am unsure how to make it copy until a new/unique value, even if the company names duplicate/save together it's not that big of a deal. Again any help is appreciated.

Here is something I found that does what I need it to do but it errors on duplicate file names, any help would be appreciated.

' Loops through a specified column, and split each distinct values into a separate file by making a copy and deleting rows below and above

' - same value repeated
' - cells containing "total"

Here is the subsection that will save the items by appending 1 to the end of the save as name, I replaced the ash.SaveAs command with the below code.

Dim iTemp As Integer
      Dim filenamepath As String
      iTemp = 1
      filenamepath = sFilePath + "\Split\" + sSectionName 'addition
        
            Do While Dir(filenamepath & ".xlsx") <> vbNullString
                filenamepath = filenamepath & iTemp
                iTemp = iTemp + 1
            Loop
        ash.SaveAs filenamepath & ".xlsx"
