chijanzen,

it makes a new workbook, but just calls it workbook 2.

it inserts the sheet, but does not save the workbook.

it still says error 400.

thanks for the reply chijanzen,

i got an error 400.

if this helps, i want the new workbook saved in the same directory as the
original workbook. this way, you don't need to find a folder with the same
name.

please let me knwo if you don't understand what i mean

Thanks,
steve

Using a button:

1) copy a sheet into a new workbook
2) save the workbook into the following directory:

"P:\Projects\Jobs\....

the next folder will be the same name as the original workbook

is this possible?

i also want to name the new workbook with today's date.

i appreciate any help

thanks,
steve
