I need a macro which will add sheets using a template and name them from a column of cells

Hi everyone, I'm new here and don't have a lot of experience with macros but here is my problem.

Step 1: I have data coming from a data dump which is placed on the "Summary" sheet of my excel workbook. I need to take column A (beginning at A8) and create a new sheet (based on "Template" located in the same workbook) for each name in column A.

Step 2: I need to place the name of the new sheets in cell C4 of each sheet so I can do a lookup using C4 as my lookup_value, so this can't be a formula like "=MID(CELL("filename",A1),FIND("]",CELL("filename",A1))+1,256)" because lookup doesn't function properly.

Step 3: Delete "Template", so that the only things left are the "Summary" sheet and the new sheets.

Each department will have their own workbook with a "summary" sheet and different sheet names although they will all start off with the same data dump and will all be in the same format. Each department could also have a different number of new sheets added depending on information from the data dump.

I found a utility (ASAP Utilities) which will do the steps I need done, but it won't record in the macro.

Help please Budget time is fast approching and each department needs their worksheets.

Thanks so much for your help
