excel - Save each sheet in a workbook to separate CSV files

Question

How do I save each sheet in an Excel workbook to separate CSV files with a macro?

I have an excel with multiple sheets and I was looking for a macro that will save each sheet to a separate CSV (comma separated file). Excel will not allow you to save all sheets to different CSV files.

@AlexDuggleby: you don't need to copy the worksheets, you can save them directly. e.g.:

Public Sub SaveWorksheetsAsCsv()
Dim WS As Excel.Worksheet
Dim SaveToDirectory As String

    SaveToDirectory = "C:"

    For Each WS In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
        WS.SaveAs SaveToDirectory & WS.Name, xlCSV
    Next

End Sub

Only potential problem is that that leaves your workbook saved as the last csv file. If you need to keep the original workbook you will need to SaveAs it.
