Hi there, I have a button on a spreadsheet that saves a copy of the
spreadsheet to the user's temp file, then emails this copy. This worked fine in Excel 2003 and still does. However if I save the template in Excel 2007, the mailing works, but when the other person receives the email they get a warning message: The file you are trying to open, 'file name', is in a different format than specified by the file extension. Verify that the file is not corrupted and is from a trusted source before opening the file. Do you want to open the file now? Here is the code that is creating the file that is emailed: TempFilePath = Environ$("temp") & "\" If Val(Application.Version) < 12 Then 'You use Excel 97-2003 FileExtStr = ".xls": FileFormatNum = -4143 Else 'You use Excel 2007 FileExtStr = ".xlsx": FileFormatNum = 52 End If With Application .ScreenUpdating = False .EnableEvents = False End With Set wb1 = ActiveWorkbook TempFileName = ThisWorkbook.Name & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm") wb1.SaveCopyAs TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr Set wb2 = Workbooks.Open(TempFilePath & TempFileName & FileExtStr) Does anyone know how to stop this in 2007? Thank you, Jen |

Looks like you're putting the timestamp after the file extension:
TempFileName = ThisWorkbook.Name & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm") MyFile.XLS becomes MyFile.XLS 22-Jan-09 15-50 Try something like this: TempFileName = Left$(ThisWorkbook.Name, InStrRev(ThisWorkbook.Name, ".") - 1) TempFileName = TempFileName & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm") TempFileName = TempFileName & Mid$(ThisWorkbook.Name, InStrRev(ThisWorkbook.Name, ".") ) Now the file extension will not change.

Hi there. Thank you both for the replies. Neither of them worked though.
I am not getting MyFile.xls 22-01-08 15-13.xls, I get MyFile 22-01-08 15-13.xls. It works just fine if this is in a 2003 format, just not 2007. Any other suggestions?
