Very easy using VBA.
This macro will give you 28 files with one sheet each named after each worksheet
saved to the same folder as the active workbook.
Sub Make_New_Books()
Dim w As Worksheet
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each w In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
w.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileName:=ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & w.Name
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Next w
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
End Sub
If not familiar with VBA and macros, see David McRitchie's site for more on
"getting started".

In the meantime..........
First...create a backup copy of your original workbook.
To create a General Module, hit ALT + F11 to open the Visual Basic Editor.
Hit CRTL + r to open Project Explorer.
Find your workbook/project and select it.
Right-click and Insert>Module. Paste the code in there. Save the
workbook and hit ALT + Q to return to your workbook.
Run the macro by going to Tool>Macro>Macros.
You can also assign this macro to a button or a shortcut key combo.

Is it possible to easily separate worksheets into individual workbooks. I
have 28 worksheets that have to go to 28 individuals. Many thanks,
