Save as macro
 

I am trying to make a macro which opens the Save As-box. Can anyone
help me?

I know this has been asked before, but on most occations people want
the filename to be based on the input in the worksheet. I just want the
Save As-box to appear, and the user to enter the filename (and choose
the path).

Look at GetSaveAsFilename in VBA help.

Sounds like the very recent 'Breaking a UserForm' thread, have you read
it?

GetSaveAsFilename might be what you need, or did I misunderstand your
requirements?

And where do I find VBA help (would probably help me with many
questions:-) ? When I press the questionmark in my Visual basic window,
and search for GetSaveAsFilename in Index, I get no match (only
GetObject function and GetSetting function).

Type GetSaveAsFilename in the immediate window, select it, then press F1.

put this line to your code:

Application.GetSaveAsFilename

It will open the Save As -prompt

Thanks. And how do I get the SaveAs-box to filter only excel-files (and
give the file .xls-ending)?

Ok, put this to the code:

Application.GetSaveAsFilename , "Excel-files,*.xls", 1, "Give the name"


The overview can be found from the Help files (select the
GetSaveAsFilename in code window and press F1)

Very good thank you. Did not know about the F1-function, but it will
help me a lot on other issues as well :-)
