Excel to save as a hidden file?
Ok heres the thing...I can manage to get Excel to save a file as
"whatever.whateverextension" but I am wondering...it is possible to set an attribute to the "Save As" macro to save as a hidden file in Windows, so someone couldn't see it? |

Not with the Excel.SaveAs.
But after the save and close, you can use SetAttr() However, if that file is visible will depend on the user's Windows settings. NickHK wrote in message ups.com...
