Default Need help with code to save/open

I have VBA code called "savetoron" in a spreadsheet (Max OSX, Excel
2004) which reads some data from certain cells and constructs a
filename, then saves that spreadsheet, with that filename, to a certain
location, and closes that file on the screen. It reads like this:

Sub savetoron()
fname = "(" & Range("B1") & ")" & Range("D1") & Range("H1") & "_" &
Range("T1") & ".xls"
pathname = "Volumes:ACSP:IDEACoordination:Funding Team:WEBSAS
Review:Ron Morgan:06-07:"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=pathname & fname, _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
ActiveWorkbook.Close
End Sub

What I'm trying to do is modify this code so that it would not only
close the file, it would also open the original file called
"06-07main.xls"
which is on my desktop. I think that code should look like this:

Workbooks.Open Filename:= _
"Mac OS X HD:Users:rmorgan:Desktop:06-07main.xls"

The task I'm trying to facilitate: the user starts off with
06-07main.xls, which is a blank template spreadsheet. He fills it in
with some data, then hits a "Save" button/object which executes the
"savetoron" code above.

Then it re-opens a fresh copy of 06-07main.xls, he fills it in, hits
the save button, and it gets saved, closes, and another fresh one
opens, etc. etc.

I can NOT find a place to insert the Workbooks.Open code so it will
work. Can somebody help?

Thanks,
Ron M.
