Customized File Name - Auto Save
Apr 1, 2008
I have a workbook.
I would like to automate with code the process of extracting one worksheet from that workbook, and saving it as a separate workbook, with a file name equal to the text value of a cell (date formatted dd-mm-yy) from within that workbook. (ie d1="10/07/08" save file with one worksheet 10-07-08.xls)

I close an existing excel file I need to automatically save it to another folder as the same name. I don't want any prompts or save as boxes to appear when this happens.
I need to do this as I use the file all the time, but need to save it on to a network where others can view it.

Is It Possible To Auto Save To A File Via A Macro?
What I Want To Do Is To Auto Save Directly To A Folder On Our System Via A Macro.
The Problem Is That Firstly It Will Need To Look Up A Cell ( D8 ) To Find Out The Job Number
Then It Will Have To Find The Folder On Our System ( Its On Desktop Under Job File Folder ) Then Comes The Hard Bit It Will Need To Locate That Job Number ( Cell D8 ) To Look Up The Relevant Folder To Put It In. All The Job Files Are Labelled Up Eg.( J2663 - Parry ) Then In That Folder Is A Sub Folder Called Docs Which It Needs To Be Saved In

I have three cells checked to make sure data is in them and then the code is meant to save the file with some of the data from those three cells. The checks work but now the save part doesn't! If I comment out two of the checks the save does work.

I have created a spreadsheet that requires the buttons on a customised tab/ribbon in order to use it.
If this is on my machine where I have customised the ribbon it works fine. However I need to email this spreadsheet to another person - but wanted them also to have my customised ribbon. Is there anyway to do this - or would I have to go and customise their ribbon on their machine?

I have tried several posts form this forum and elsewhere and can't seem to get the macro to do what I want.....
I want to save a 'worksheet' from an open workbook that I use for updating information to the same file path as the workbook with the date the file saved...

What I am trying to do is that I have an excel file with macros and it is a read-only file. In order for the user to save, I want them to only be able to save as a .xlsx file as it disables all macros. If for whatever reason, the user wants to save the file as another .xlsm file, they should be allowed but before they save, a "are you sure you want to save as .xlsm?" message should pop up.
All the options in the save as box should still be available in case they want to save in that particular format. Just that the .xlsx should be the default.

I have a spreadsheet where I want to require certain fields to be completed then I want to have that file auto emailed. I have learned that I do need to have the file saved before sending otherwise the data will not appear in the email, so with this I want to have the file temporarily saved emailed then the temp file deleted.
Here is the code I have so far but it errors on the blue text, I did change the TempFileName from = "Copy of " & wb1.Name & " " & Format(Now, "dd-mmm-yy h-mm-ss") to = [C16] & "_" & [B6] & "_" & [D6]
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
If Range("B6").Value = "" Or _
Range("d6").Value = "" Or _
Range("f6").Value = "" Or _
Range("E9").Value = "" Or _
[Code] ......

A co-worker of mine is exporting files from Quickpen as excel files, but every time he names the files with any Uppercase letters in the files name, they are automatically changing to all lower case. Even when he tries to rename the files, they will not stay with any uppercase letters....I have searched all over and cannot find a solution. If he sends ME the file, I can open it in excel and save it with any cases.

I have a Workbook that already has a macro in it that will generate multiple sheets based on certain criteria.
For each of these newly generated sheets (numbered 1-6 in the attached example), I need to be able save each of them to a PDF file based on a unique name contained in a certain cell (in this case, each named is referenced in cell Q1 of each sheet). As such, I should end up with 6 pdfs based on the attached sample files.
The PDFs would ideally need to be landscaped and should be just 1 page per sheet.
In my attached sample workbook, you'll notice that I have a "PracticePrint" macro that doesn't quite get the job done. One other criteria involves not printing any sheet with the characters "1010" in it (my PracticePrint macro is setup to do that, but it fails to do much else).

I have written the following simple macro to import some data into a worksheet and then prompt the user to save the file in Excel 2003 format (the system to which we will upload this data does not accept formats later than 2003). The template is in "*.xlsm" format.
The code executes without error, but when the user hits the "Save" button in the "Save As" dialog box, nothing happens. The "Save As" box closes, but no file is saved.
Code:
Private Sub cmdImportData_Click()
Dim sFName As String
'On Error Resume Next
PrepData
CopyData
FormatColumns
'prompt the user to save the file in "*.xls" format
sFName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename("upload", "Excel files (*.xls), *.xls")
End Sub

How can I set the SAVE AS file name to equal A1's cell contents? (More specifically, when I need to rename an existing open file and place my cursor in A1 and hit Save As, I need to new file name to automatically populate A1's cell contents so I don't have to retype the contents of A1.)

How can I save worksheet from existing workbook as a new workbook with extension .xls or .xlsx depending on the version of Excel on which the original was opened and no matter the extension of original?
My code that I was trying to create all above does not work, because even if I am using Excel 2007, 2010 or 2013 it will still be saving only as .xls.

I want to create a macro that will select all the worksheets (names and quantity will vary) and saves the file as the current file's name but in PDF. Since I only know how to record a macro it specifies the worksheet names but I need it for various workbooks. The name will vary plus the number of tabs can go anywhere from 3 to 40.

How to save a file, with file- name. but the directory is to be read in worksheet "towns" in Cell1 (brussels) and filename in worksheet "names" in cell B2 (i.e. winter), so it saves to c:russelswinter.txt as a wordpad or kladblok txt file, that keeps a number, so each time we push a button "go back from worksheet names to worksheet towns" the "number" that is saved in the txt document goes up by value +1. In Flemisch, the "old" code goes as follows, and saves the number in the txt file Factuurnummer7.txt. But I want that the file name (here: FactuurNummer7) can be a variable text issue, which has to be read - as already noticed - in cell B2 (with the word WINTER). So the are 2 worksheets: towns, ans names
pad$ = Application.DefaultFilePath
'controle = Dir(pad$ + "FactuurNummer7.txt")
'If controle = "" Then GoTo EerstAanmaken
'Open pad$ + "Factuurnummer7.txt" For Input As #10
'Input #10, Nummer1
'Close #10......................

I presently have a macro that, when run, takes to conents of C4 and C6 and saves a new version of the file being worked on into a folder on my desktop. I love the macro with the exception of one part: I don't want to be prompted to overwrite the file if it already exists. How can I change this macro so that, when pressed, it overwrites the file without prompting the user and waiting for their answer?
Here is the current

Currently I have an excel form that I am working on. I just figured out how to get it to open when I open the workbook. I am wondering is there code out there that will prompt excel to auto save the worksheet that the form writes to when the "OK" button on my form is clicked. I want to be able to save the data without having to rely on the user to remember to save everytime entry is complete. if there is a code for this function, where would I place it in my code listing?

Is there a way to have excel automatically save the workbook every 5 minutes or so? I'm not talking about the backup option (tools-options-save) I mean do a hard save?
Or would this warrant a timed VBA code? If so, can someone build me one quickly? I'm kinda in a time crunch - sorry for last minute notice. Co-worker just deleted 8 hours of work bec "she didn't" know to save it....

I am using one spread sheet to store date that gets updated throughout the day and am pulling information form that sheet to another file. I need to save it to get the current data and I don't want to rely on the person entering data to remember to save. The sheet I want to save is called Log.

I have attached a code that prompt the user for a store # then that number would automatically copy to cell A1 and at the same time it saves the file name as what is copied to A1.
This is a good code but the problem is when the file is closed and re-open, it prompts the user again for a store number and when you select 'Cancel' it replaces the store# already stored in cell A1.
What I am trying to accomplish:
1- When the file is re-opened, it should detect cell A1, if it's empty prompt user for store #, if it's not empty skip the prompt screen.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
var1 = InputBox("store#")
Range("a1") = var1
var1_filename = var1 & ".xls"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=var1_filename
End Sub

i have a workbook that pulls data from 7 other workbooks based off of 3 criteria. In 6 of the 7 workbooks there are 6 sheets and in the last sheet there are 15sheet. All the sheets are used on different computers and currently the member who use these sheets cant remember to save them so the main workbook can pull the information. So I was hoping for a VB code to do the save for them after they enter any data in the range of A1:J50.
Then for the main work book i was hoping for a VB code to auto update after entering the 3 criteria. I have a marco made but it takes awhile to do it. First it saves the sheet, then pulls the information, then refreshes some pivot table, then populates into the proper cells.

I have only one workbook in which I would like to enable auto-save. Hence, I do not need the auto-save add-in, which I've already tried. Is there some VBA code that can replicate the auto-save add-in for only one workbook? Also, I would like the default auto-save settings to save every 1 minute and NOT prompt for the save. This workbook gets completely new data every few seconds through a DDE Link, so having it save without prompting would be fine. I liked the auto-save add-in, but it reset to default settings every time the workbook was closed, I'd like to keep the same settings every time the workbook is opened.
