all this macro does is save the Summary Report Master worbook and
create a copy of it in another folder
everything works fine up untill this point
as you can see i then select the workbook Data Summary Report Query
and try to close it
but it will not close
can anyone point me in the right direction
cheers

hi

correct me if i'm wrong... but i think perhaps u need to close the
active window, * ActiveWindow.Close * instead of * ActiveWorkbook.Close
* (2nd last line)

cheers
