Hello,

The following code saves the active workbook in c:/files

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\files\" & ActiveWorkbook.Name

However, I have two sub folders in c:\files,

c:\files\new\ and c:\files\old\

Is it possible to add a cell reference to the end of

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\files\"

so I can type, for example, "old" or "new" in cell A1, and when I save

using
the above code, excel will save in the appropriate sub folder?

I have tried along the lines of:

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\files\Range("A1")" & ActiveWorkbook.Name

but I cannot get it to work.

Thanks in advance.

Pinda.
