Default how to hide .CSV file extension ?

Get the macro to rename the file after it has been saved.

Hello @ll,

I have a macro that saves ".xls" as ".csv" but how can I hide the
".csv" extension (and use for example an extension ".100", and not
".100.csv")

regards,
Ayato

In Windows Explorer, click Tools | Folder Options + View tab and check the 'Hide file extensions for known file types' radio button. If you want this to apply to the whole filing system, clicke the 'Like Current Folder' button also.

Bad idea. This might hide an extension of a virus. If its name is
MyFile.xls.exe, it only looks like MyFile.xls, so you try opening the
workbook and instead launch a virus.
