I would like to export the last worksheet in my workbook into a backu
dir. How can I do this without doing "Copy Worksheet" where it opens u
in the new work book? I would just like it to export while keeping onl
the current workbook open.
Thanks in advance,
Mik

this dose not do exactly what your asking, it saves the
whole file to a bu directory, adjust it to fit your needs

Sub CreateBackUp()
'need to creat the folder Bu if not their
Dim Num As Integer
Dim OrgPathSt As String
Const BUPath As String = "C:\BU\"
Dim BUPathName As String
Dim Wb As Workbook

On Error GoTo CreateDir
Application.ScreenUpdating = False

Set Wb = ActiveWorkbook

OrgPathSt = Wb.Path & "\" & Wb.Name
If Left(OrgPathSt, 1) = "\" Then
MsgBox "You must name & save your file first,
Via 'File' then 'Save As'"
Exit Sub
End If
BUPathName = "C:\BU\" & Left(Wb.Name, Len(Wb.Name) -
4) & _
" (" & Year(Date) & "-" & Month(Date) & "-" & Day
(Date) & " " & Hour(Time) & "." & Minute(Time) & "." &
Second(Time) & ")" & ".xls"

Num = MsgBox("Do you wish to save the Current file
as:" & vbNewLine & "[ " & OrgPathSt & " ]" _
& vbNewLine & vbNewLine & "And Create the Backup
File:" & vbNewLine & "[ " & BUPathName & " ]",
vbOKCancel, "Back Up")
If Num = vbCancel Then Exit Sub

Wb.Save
SaveAsBu:
Wb.SaveAs FileName:=BUPathName
Wb.Close

Workbooks.Open FileName:=OrgPathSt

Application.ScreenUpdating = True
Exit Sub
CreateDir:
MkDir "BU"
GoTo SaveAsBu
End Sub

I doubt you can, but you can make the action not visible

Application.ScreenUpdating = False
worksheets(worksheets.count).Copy
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\myfolder\myfile.xls"
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True

Thanks, I have made similar code but my original question kind of
stumped me. Anyone have any other ideas?

One reason I didn't want to copy the ws to a new wb is because it won'
copy the complete cell if it has more than 255 chars. Is there any wa
around this issue? Thank

Dim rng as Range
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
set rng = worksheets(worksheet.count).Cells
worksheets(worksheets.count).Copy
rng.copy Destination:=Activesheet.Cells
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs "C:\myfolder\myfile.xls"
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
