Default fixed filter criteria made variable

Hi, I have recorded a macro which runs fine for a specific workbook (the one
I recorded it on) but I need to adapt it so that it can run on any customer's
workbook.
It filters data from table "sonyapps", sheet "2009", according to filter
criteria: contains "sony".
Then it pastes filtered data onto new worksheet
and then performs another filter on the already filtered data, according to
filter criteria contains "/sony" and then the macro continues.
Now when I run the macro on customer workbook "epson", for each of those
instances I would like the macro to substitute the word "sony" with the word
"eps" (which is the code i give the customer epson).
Is there a way to do this (with a single popup box preferably) or do I have
to record 15 similar macros? maybe the table/range can be selected without a
name as it is the only table in the worksheet, how would I do that?
here are the instances:
Range("sonyapps").Select
Range("Q130").Activate

ActiveSheet.ListObjects("sonyapps").Range.AutoFilt er Field:=1, Criteria1:= _
"=*sony*", Operator:=xlAnd

ActiveSheet.Range("$A$1:$Q$17").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="=*/sony*", _
Operator:=xlAnd

(ALSO is the "Q130" (the end cell of table "sonyapps") and the "$A$1:$Q$17"
(the original pasted table) going to adapt themselves,?)

I appreciate any help, thanks.
