Make (save) a file by using macro recorder.
 

Hi all,

I am new to macro and using macro recoder to create macro. On one file which
I recieve every week from material department. I need to reformat and create
pivot table. I use macro recorder and everything is working good. However I
need that when my recorded macro end it create a file with the same name with
the date and time it was create. I need every week a new file and I dont want
to replace the one. Please let me know how I can create a new file with the
date and time everyweek when I run my macro. Thanks

Hi Farhan

This should do it, just insert your path in the MyPath variable:

Dim MyPath As String
Dim fName As String
MyPath = "C:\Temp\" 'Change to suit
fName = "MyFile_" & Format(Now, "mmddyy_hh:mm")
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=MyPath & fName

Best regards,
Per

But don't include the colon in the time portion of the format() argument.

"mmddyy_hh:mm"

I'd use:
"mmddyy_hhmmss"
