Default Save as new file without changing existing file

Try it

Note: I use SaveCopyAs and not SaveAs

Unfortuantly what I want is not that simple.

I basically want a macro that works just like an auto save works. So if I
run the macro a file "B.xls" is saved which is a snap shot of what the file
"A.xls" currently is. Then if I close file "A.xls" I am still asked if I
would like to save my changes before closing.

The easy way to get back the old file is simply go to the File menu and look
for the old filename at the bottom of the menu.

Lets say an excel file A.xls has been opened and has had some changes made
to it but not saved. Is it possible in VBA to save this file as B.xls
including the changes and have file A.xls still open in excel so that if
the file were to be closed you could still select to save the changes or not?

Thanks
