Trouble saving a worsheet to a file using macros.
I have set up a macro using the following code to save my worksheet as a
seperate file using the days date as the filename eg 21012005.xls Sheets("*****").Copy strAppend = Format(Date, "DDMMYYYY") strPath = "*****" fSaveName = strPath & strAppend & ".xls" ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs fSaveName ActiveWorkbook.Close I would like to put in a code that says if that file (21012005.xls) all ready exists, add an "a" after the date,eg "21012005a.xls". Can this be done? I'm only new to using macros and any help would be greatly appreciated. |

Trouble saving a worsheet to a file using macros.
Tom, can I add an additional Q. here?
Can your modify your code so that the new created "DDMMYYYY.xls" formatted file will not contain the original file macro codes and possible control button figures on the copied sheet?
