save Workbook
 

Hi

I want to create a macro that Saves the workbook with the value of
cell.. However I want the user to be able to choose the destination
but not the filename.

How can I do this?

And it would also be great to set a defult save folder for the user.
i.e. When the user saves the document through my macro, it then save
the chosen destination folder, and stores this for next time the macr
runs...
So next time he wants to save, it automatically chooses this folder..

save Workbook
 

thisworkbook.Path

gives you the path of the workbook.


This page at John Walkenbach's site shows how to display the folder
selection dialog:
http://www.j-walk.com/ss/excel/tips/tip29.htm
this uses the API. there are scripting solutions as well and in xl2002/3
you can use the FileDialog object.

Chdir will change the current directory.

ThisWorkbook.SaveAs allows you to save the workbook where you specify.
