Try executing the following code in a module

Sub saveTab()
Dim wb As Workbook

For Each wb In Workbooks
intCounter = intCounter + 1
wb.SaveAs wb.Name & " Tab Delimited Number " & intCounter & ".xls",
xlFormat

Next

End Sub

Hi to you all

I have files in tab delimited file and I want to save them as excel
files.
Since I'll have to do this for many files, I want to use a macro
I used the record macro function and got a code that works, but the
problem is that it always saves the same name - and what I want is to
the file to be saved using the same file name as the file is active,
something like ActiveWorkbook in line 2? (it doesn't work but it would
be something like that...)

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileName:= _
"Macintosh HD:Myfile.xls" _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False



I have looked for a while in the postings archives, but couldn't find
anything. there's a lot of stuff so I could have easily have missed it.
thanks for your help and patience
