hi
xl does not have this feature built in. but it is possible. as an ex-lotus
user, i got use to one of it's features call save range. so i wrote a macro
for that in excel. I have the macro in my personal file in the xl start
folder so that it will be available for all files and runit from a custom
menu item.
Sub mac1SaveRange()

'Macro written by FSt1 4/27/00

Dim cnt As Long
Dim cell As Range


ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Select
If Selection.Cells.Count = 1 Then
If MsgBox("You have selected only one cell. Continue?????", vbYesNo,
"Warning") = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
End If
End If
cnt = 0
For Each cell In Selection
If Not IsEmpty(cell) Then
cnt = cnt + 1
End If
Next
If cnt = 0 Then
If MsgBox("There is no data in the selected range. Continue?!?!?!?!?",
vbYesNo, "Warning") = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
End If
End If
Selection.Copy
Workbooks.Add
Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogSaveAs).Show
End Sub


Post back if you need help setting it up.

Is there a save-as option instead of copying sheet from workbook to save it
separately?
