Save As to a particular file location.
I have having using a macro to "save as" to a particular file
location. For some reason it was working and now it always saves the file to "my document". I don't know what happened. Below is the code, with the location I want to save it at in "local". Any ideas? Sub save() ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileFormat:=51, Filename:=Sheets("dashboard").Range("B6").Value & " Weekly Report " & Format(Date, "mmdd"), Local:="N:\Aarons Team\TSA Core Reports" End Sub |

Is FileFormat 51 an xl2007 file format? I can't find it in xl2002. In any case, the file path should be part of the Filename. So... ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FileFormat:=51, _ Filename:="N:\Aarons Team\TSA Core Reports\" & _ Sheets("dashboard").Range("B6").Value & _ " Weekly Report " & Format(Date, "mmdd") -- Jim Cone San Francisco, USA http://www.realezsites.com/bus/primitivesoftware wrote in message I have having using a macro to "save as" to a particular file location.

Ron de Bruin has some sample code that saves as different formats:

Maybe:
filename:="N:\Aarons Team\TSA Core Reports\" _ & Sheets("dashboard").Range("B6").Value & " Weekly Report " _ & Format(Date, "mmdd") & ".xlsx" I think you'll want to read about what Local does in VBA's help under .saveas. wrote: I have having using a macro to "save as" to a particular file location.

Thanks! I just removed the two "_" dashes and your code worked. Yes,
file format 51 is 2007 format for a macro enabled workbook. |

The space character followed by the underscore character is the continuation
character. That means that the line doesn't have to extend to the far right (causing you to scroll right/left to read it). It can make it easier to read the code when you just have to scroll up/down. wrote: Thanks! I just removed the two "_" dashes and your code worked.
