You would use the change event and put in an if statement. Assume D1 is the
"contact cell".
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
if Target.Address = "$D$1" then
if Thisworkbook.Path = "" then
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\Myfolder\" & Target.Value & ".xls"
end if
End if
End Sub
right click on the sheet tab of the sheet with the "Contact Cell" and select
view code, then put in code like the above.

I am developing a form template for our company. I would like it to
automatically prompt to "Save As" as soon as data in entered into the contact
cell. I would also like it to suggest for the file name, the name that is in
that cell.
I would assume this would be performed in the Visual Basic Editor but I am
not sure. Also, I am not familiar with this programming format.
Thank your for your assistance
