Save As
 

I have made a custom icon that will eventaully Save a copy of the workbook in
a specified location. Since I am so new to macro and MVB programming, I am
need of some serious help. First of all I made a User Form that is a pop-up
window that will display which shift the workbook should be saved as "Days"
or "Nights". If the "Days" button is clicked then I want a copy of the
current state of the workbook saved to "D:\2008\Days\*" If "Nights" is
clicked then of course it will be in "D:\2008\Nights\*".
* will be "Days Cost" or "Nights Cost" then following this will be today's
current date. i.e. if I save it today then it will be saved as "Days Cost
11-23-08" or "Nights Cost 11-23-08", if I save it tomorrow it will be saved
as "Days Cost 11-24-08" or "Nights Cost 11-24-08"
I also don't know how to get the custom icon in my toolbar to open up the
pop-up window when it's pressed.
Is any of this possible?

I know it's easier to simply go through the motions of using the File Menu
but I have posted step-by-step instructions on how to save the file with
pictures and still it continues to be messed up.

Save As
 

Try this
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Const sPath As String = "D:\2008\Days\"
Dim fName As String
fName = ""
Select Case True
Case Is = CheckBox1.Value = True, CheckBox2.Value = True
MsgBox "Must have either Day or Night selected. Please select
one only one.", vbCritical
Case Is = CheckBox1.Value = True
fName = "Days cost" & " " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy") & ".xls"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=sPath & fName,
FileFormat:=xlExcel8
Case Is = CheckBox2.Value = True
fName = "Night cost" & " " & Format(Date, "mm-dd-yy") & ".xls"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=sPath & fName,
FileFormat:=xlExcel8
End Select

You will need to put it into the user form. You will need 2 checkboxes. One
named Checkbox1 the named Checkbox2. You will need One Button.

hi
just as an extra thought,
you could put this behide your 2 check boxes so that only one can be checked
at a time.
in check box 1 code:
Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
If CheckBox1 = True Then
CheckBox2 = False
End If
End Sub
check box 2 code:
Private Sub CheckBox2_Click()
If CheckBox2 = True Then
CheckBox1 = False
End If
End Sub

just a thought

This belongs on the same line of code as the MsgBox line that is above
it. The post got line wrapped. The code starting with MsgBox and
ending with vbCritical should be on a single line within VBA.

a specified location. Since I am so new to macro and MVB programming, I am
need of some serious help. First of all I made a User Form that is a pop-up
window that will display which shift the workbook should be saved as "Days"
or "Nights". If the "Days" button is clicked then I want a copy of the
current state of the workbook saved to "D:\2008\Days\*" If "Nights" is
clicked then of course it will be in "D:\2008\Nights\*".
* will be "Days Cost" or "Nights Cost" then following this will be today's
current date. i.e. if I save it today then it will be saved as "Days Cost
11-23-08" or "Nights Cost 11-23-08", if I save it tomorrow it will be saved
as "Days Cost 11-24-08" or "Nights Cost 11-24-08"
I also don't know how to get the custom icon in my toolbar to open up the
pop-up window when it's pressed.
Is any of this possible?

I know it's easier to simply go through the motions of using the File Menu
but I have posted step-by-step instructions on how to save the file with
pictures and still it continues to be messed up.

You will need to put it into the user form. You will need 2 checkboxes. One
named Checkbox1 the named Checkbox2. You will need One Button.

Where do I put this, the User Form, as a recorded Macro, a module?
