Changing file name
 

Use "Save As" and rename ... then delete old file.

Yes, you can do another save as and give it a new name, then do fileopen
and delete the old file from Excel without having to use Windows explorer.
Obviously you can't change the name of a file that is already open.. So if
you want to use a macro, the code has to close the file when it changes the
name and then open it again

As long as it isn't the file you have currently open, Click File, Open,
select the file, press F2 and type in the new name, press enter.
