maybe this simple idea will help? Modify to suit
Sub movefile()
OldName = "C:\oldfolder\oldname.xls"
NewName = "C:\newfolder\newname.xls"
Name OldName As NewName
End Sub

...
I have a workbook that posts to two other workbooks. As part of the setup
process, all three files are in the same directory (wherever the user
initially saves them by downloading from our website or saving from
email).
About 140 locations will use these files, and each one can initially place
them wherever they want, on their local or network drives, so I cannot fix
the path and force where the files are initially placed. When the main
file
is opened, VBA sets up a subdirectory called 2007 Budget, and creates a
master file. I need to MOVE the other two files into this subdiretory as
part
of the set up process so they are in the same subfolder. I just need to go
up
one directory from the 2007 Budget directory and move these files down to
the
2007 Budget directory. Can anyone help? Thanks!
