First post so please bear with me. Ron's code has been a life saver! I need
to add three things to this gem.
Turn off display of msg when saving from xlsx to xls (loosing 2007
formatting is ok).
Prompt to specify name of sheets in new workbooks from "Sheet1" to "Charges".
Prompt for mm-yy suffix to append to file name...like ABC Company 11-08.

Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time.
