When you click File>Save As, you get a save as window that shows the current file name to "Save As"
I would like to create a macro that shows the values in a couple of cells (lets use Range("A1") & Range("B2")) instead of the current file name.
I need to know the line or two of code to disable the
FILE and CLOSE buttons to force saving to the same file.
I know they exist, because I obtained and tested them in
an excel sheet, but somehow managed to lose the code
and the link from which I obtained them.
I am trying to save my workbook to a file on my shared drive.
When I change the default save location in the options menue it works fine for the first instance but when I return and open the file ... even the one from the shared drive it faults back the C: drive location on my laptop. My excel version is 2010 and my code for file name is below ... I just dont know how to force the path/destination in VBA
Code:
Dim namefile As Variant
With Worksheets("Panelas")
namefile = .Range("V3") & "_" & .Range("C5") & "_" & .Range("P3") & "_" & Format(Now, "yyyy-mm-dd") & ".xlsm"
End With
namefile = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(namefile, fileFilter:="Excel Files (*.xlsm), *.xlsm")
[code]....
I've looked through the threads and have seen some Save As posts, but nothing that seems to fit my task. All I want to do is force the Save As file type to .xls (for some reason on our network, xlsm causes save errors... After looking through various posts, I found this:
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If Not SaveAsUI Then
Exit Sub [code]....
The problem is this causes the Save As dialog box to show up twice... How I get the Save As dialog box to show up once?
I have created a tool in excel to facilitate different requests from our sales force. A drop down list in the first worksheet lists the request types. Once the type is selected the user clicks a command button that sends the user to the corresponding worksheet specific to the request type.
My problem is that I need to verify that the cells on the specific worksheet have all been completed. I tried to verify when saving in the workbook module, but I don't know how to only check the selected request worksheet.
One thought was to insert save command buttons on each worksheet and only allow saving through those buttons. (So I would need to remove any saving functionality from the file menu/toolbar.) Then I could attach the verification code to that button on each worksheet. Preventing saving until the requested data was entered.
If this methodology will work I need to know how to do the following:
1) remove alternative saving methods
2) Once those methods are removed, how do I code a command button to check that specific cells are not null and then "save as".
3) if cells are null then, stop save and show msgbox.
I am working in Excel 2003.
I have a macro-enabled template file in Excel 2007. I would like the user to be unable to save in any format other than macro-enabled. They should be free to choose a path and filename, but not the file type.
I presume this means some VBA code in the before save event, but I don't know what.
I've created a file where our accountmanagers can mace price calculations. But eversince i've added a macro to force them to fill the form completely, they have gone and tried to hack the macro (and with succes).
I now would like to add a protection for the macro, so they can only access VBA when "sheet1" is unprotected. How can i do this?
I also would like to create a macro so they only can save the file as a Macro Enabled Excel file (.xlsm),
how can i do this best? .....
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 am trying to create a macro to run from a form button, within a report, to save a file to a variable file path and name depending on the date value in cell B5.
The format of B5 looks like - 13/08/2014 16:39
The file path has folders for each year in format "yyyy" with each year having sub folders for each month in format "mm".
The file name is just the date only and is formatted "dd.mm.yy" e.g. 13.08.14
I have tried the code below in various permutations but always end up with an error - Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Workbook' failed.

I am trying to create a macro which will save the file and take the file name from cell values eg if cell A1 = "488" and Cell B1= "Buyers" when saved the file name would be 488_Buyers.

Could any Excel wiz out there tell me whether the following is possible, and if so what would be the VB code to do it?
I would like a macro that will save the contents of cell A2 in a text file, with file name from cell A1, then move the cursor down to the next row, and repeat the process until reaching the last row of data.
The end result would be a stack of text files, each containing the data from a single cell in the spreadsheet.
e.g.
001.txt (containing the contents of cell A2)
002.txt (containing the contents of cell B2)
003.txt (containing the contents of cell C2)
...etc.
This is for a multi lingual dictionary so the text files would have to be unicode as well.
I have a file where cell A1 is the name of the file along with B1 and C1 which provide the versions and variations:-
A1 - Sales Analysis
B1 - Version 2
C1 - Variation C
Is it possible to have a macro driven off a button button which will save the file as (current path to current folder) and then Sales Analysis Version 2 Variation C
By using a macro is it possible to save just a cell value as a txt file?
This is part of a Forex system I am building using excel.
There will be 28 pairs and a total of 168 buttons. Each button will be assigned a cell which will hold the information for that trade.
I am looking for a macro that will save just the cell value as trade.txt
Is it possible to save a file with a date taken from a cell? For example:
I have an Excel file opened, in the cell A1 there is a date: 12.04.2003 (or any other date format). I want an Excel to save this document, but after I check the date of creation (modification) of the file under Windows, I want to receive the result 12.04.2004 (or any other, that was in the cell "A1" before pressing SAVE button).
I imagine, that there would have to be some external script running, that would change the system date for a moment, just after detection of pressing SAVE command.
i currently have a macro on my sheet which when the file opens will chaneg a cell value by +1 and save the new worksheet as that value.
What i would like is for the new worksheet to automatically save in a new folder relevant to another cell value. So i can save the sheets in job no order.
Can't seem to get it to work....

Dim cdp As DocumentProperty

I'm working on creating a computerised invoicing system for where I work, and right now I'm creating a Day Book file.
I want the name of the file to simply be the date which it was created, in YYYYMMDD format. However, I keep getting the error message and am not sure what has gone wrong.
Please note that in the day book template, cell F1 contains the formula
=TEXT(E1,"yyyymmdd")
which may be useful to know in the later part of the code.
from the code below?
Private Sub DayBook_Click()
Select Case MsgBox("Proceed? (Ensure that a Day Book has not already been created)", vbYesNo Or vbQuestion Or vbDefaultButton1, "Day Book Creation")
Case vbYes
Dim strName As String
'copy today's date from invoice template
Range("H4").Select

i have a order form that is customer dependant. the cust name on the form is manually entered by the user within a msg box. i have specific cusotmer folders on a shared machines C drive where i would like to save these excel docs to.
i understand that the cust name must match the name of the file and there needs to be a way to save those that do not have specific folder matching what was entered as the customer name.
the overall goal is to have the file name saved as CustomerNameDeliveryDateInvoiceNumber.xls where CustName is from cell "M3", delivery date is "Q7" and InvoiceNumber is "Q1".
Sub OrderFormSave()
Dim strCustFileName As String
savefile = "\SrSharedDocsCSPSharedFILESCustomerOrderForms & strCustFileName & "

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.
