Hi Dave, I actually need to call teh work book by a different number which
may not be incremental so I would have to enter it manually at the save as
stage such as "2350wiz.xls". Here is the actual macro to show you what I have
and maybe you could show me how to append the 'save as' bit to the end

regards


Craig

Workbooks.Open Filename:="C:\excel run data\data\WIZSAVEDATA.xls"
Windows("JETLOOPR.XLS").Activate
Sheets("Ten Minutes").Select
Sheets("Ten Minutes").Copy Befo=Workbooks("WIZSAVEDATA.xls").Sheets(1)
Windows("JETLOOPR.XLS").Activate
Sheets("Hourly").Select
Sheets("Hourly").Copy Befo=Workbooks("WIZSAVEDATA.xls").Sheets(1)
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.PrintOut Copies:=1, Collate:=True

End Sub

Maybe you could use the date/time appended to the name:

Dim WizWkbk as workbook
set wizwkbk = workbooks.open("C:\somefolder\wizdatasave.xls")
'do the work

wizwkbk.saveas filename:="C:\someexistingfolder\wizdata" _
& format(now, "yyyymmdd-hhmmss") & ".xls", _
fileformat:=xlworkbooknormal

Hi, I have recorded a macro which opens a new workbook called 'wizdatasave',
then the macro selects and copies 2 worsheets from another open workbook and
pastes them into the newly open workbook 'wizdatasave'. What code do I enter
into the macro to automate the 'Save As' function? I need to save the
'wizdatasave' workbook as something different each time it is opened.
