Programming Logic
 

Hello,

I have an Excel file (FileA.xls) with a button that, when clicked, will fire
a subroutine that will:-

1. Save the file (activeworkbook) as FileB.xls (So FileA is closed
automatically)
2. Delete some rows from FileB
3. Save and Close FileB
4. Open FileA
5. Delete some other rows from FileA.

However, the code runs fine except that 5 above is not executed. I guess it
is because I have closed FileA in which the subroutine resides.

How do I solve this problem? Suggestions will be appreciated.

Steps 3 and 4 must be reversed, because as soon as you close FileB (which
contains the running macro), the code stops.

HI

Instead of "saving as " why not create a new work book copy the contents
of A to the new work book, call the new work book B and save it.

Then activate work book A

This way the code in workbook A will remain active I think.
