Macro to close workbook and re-open new copy
I have a multiple page workbook we use to enter in activation information - a
different page for each of 3 types of activations. When you choose to save it (macro) it asks for a reference number and saves the page using the reference number as the file name. That all works great. I now need to close the original file and re-open it so that the data is cleared. How can I do this because as soon as I close it the macros cease to work. -- Dave Lagergren Manager - Data Applications Wireless Management, Inc Specializing in cellular wireless applications |

Macro to close workbook and re-open new copy
Maybe your code could use:
activeworkbook.savecopyAs filename:="somepath\whateveryouwant.xls" Then you could either clean up the cells you need to clean up--or even ask. Maybe the user would want to keep the existing values for a project that's similar.

And since the code is in the same workbook, you'd probably want to use:
thisworkbook.savecopyas .... Dave Lagergren wrote: I have a multiple page workbook we use to enter in activation information - a different page for each of 3 types of activations.
