Save As file name + Today's Date using a macro
Here is what I did on one of my macros. I needed it to save with the
current date and also save as it was:
Sub test()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"F:\User Form for Lessons Learned\Lessons Learned " &
Format(Now(), "mm-dd-yyyy") & ".xls", FileFormat:= _
xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="",
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False _
, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"F:\User Form for Lessons Learned\Lessons Learned.xls",
FileFormat:= _
xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="",
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False _
, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub
I hope that helps.

Please could someone tell me how to use a macro to Save a worksheet as the
filename + the date and then save it as it's previous name again. This is
to create a backup copy of the spreadsheet and then let the user work on the
previous spreadsheet from it's original filename. I am pretty sure this has
got to be in VBA. Here is the code I have found to save as filename+Date:
Private Sub SaveDatabaseButton_Click()
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"F:\User Form for Lessons Learned\Lessons Learned " _
& Format(Date, "yyyymmdd ") & Format(Time, "hh.mm.ss") & ".xls", _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="",
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False _
, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub
But because I am totally new to VBA I can't even get that to work!!! So i
really need someone to tell me exactly to get from start to finish (finish
being a point where I have a macro that will do what I have explained above).
If anyone can help I will be very very grateful. Thanks
