How can I insert the contents of a cell as a filename?
 

I am setting up an auto-save macro button to simplify my processes when using
a template I designed.Some people using this template are not saving to the
correct area of the shared drive. They also are not using the same format
consistantly(multiple users utilyzing the same template).I have created a
cell that reflects the customer name and work order, and I want to use this
cell as my "save as" text when saving the template(via a macro). I can
default the location easy enough, but the macro is a problem. The macro works
the first time, but the next time I try to save the template, the macro has
hard coded the previous cell contents and doesn't update correctly.

How can I insert the contents of a cell as a filename?
 

Try

Activeworkbook.SaveAs FileName:=Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Value
