Default Macro (can do a save as.


Hello Carim

I am no expert when it comes to actually writing a macro but I will
give it a go. So again thankyou very much for your help and support.

Paul Maynard


QUOTE=GB]What he means is that in a sub-routine or a function:

public Sub SaveMe()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs
end sub

This sub-routine will prompt the user for the name and location in
which to
save the current workbook.

I do not have access currently to VBA help files, but there are some
other
things you can add at the end of the SaveAs feature that will allow you
to
name the file with todays date and remove the user interaction in
naming the
file. But you have to be 100% sure of where you want to store your
files as
compared either to the current location of the workbook that is doing
all the
grunt VBA work, in relation to the current users system setup, or the
network
that the file(s) are being stored on.

Hello Carim

I know this may sound like a stupid question, but when say use the
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs are you referring to File/SaveAS?
