How can i call the Save As dialog box from a macro, and pre-populate the filename field with a cell value from the workbook? I have tried this code
With Application.Dialogs(xlDialogFileSaveAs)
.Name = Sheets("Calcs").Range("b37").Value
.Show
End With
with the cell reference being what i want to show in the filename box. Each time i run it, i get an error message, "run time error 1004, application defind or object defined error"
I'm trying to make a macro check if a file has been saved (ever). If so I want the macro to do a regular save (with already esatablished filename and location) before it proceeds with the rest of the macro. If the file hasnt been saved (if it runs from a new workbook) then I want it to pop up the save.as dialog, so that the user can choose the name and location of the file before the macro continues .
The macro itself is saved in personal.xlsx.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI am modifying a corporate macro that is used in to create a standard technical letter. This standard file has 6 macros, that once used to create the letter, are never used again. I know, the first thing that jumps out is to create an add-in. I'd prefer not to got hat route at the moment for various reasons.
What I'm looking to do is after the letter is created, and the print macro is called and prints the letter, all macros are removed (already found help for this on this site), then check to see if the file has been saved, or still has the template name, and then either save or bring up the save as dialog box for the user to save the file with the appropriate name and folder.
I am running a macro on startup from a template that opens the File Save As dialog box to allow the user to select a folder and filename and save it before continuing.
I would like it to default to the Q: drive, it defaults to where the template was opened from.
I used
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogSaveAs).Show
to open the dialog, I tried using "Q:" as an argument but it doesn't seem to work.
if I try
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogOpen).Show "Q:"
I have a command button code on a sheet that checks if all the cells in a table have been completed before saving the worksheet. If they're not all complete a userform message box pops up with a reminder then returns to the sheet without saving. I want to be able to call this from the 'BeforeClose' event as well however, even though it still does what it's supposed to do, after the userform message box has displayed and been unloaded then it still pops up the Save Dialog box.
I'm struggling to suppress the Save Dialog box and return to the sheet.

I have a summary file (I'll call it File A) from which a macro is run. It opens other files, finds a "total line" then copies it into File A. Then it closes that file, opens another, and repeats the process. The macro works fine for most of the files it opens and closes, but on some of them, upon the close command, a dialog box pops up asking "Do you want to save the changes you made to "File B.xls"?
I'm not sure why this comes up as there were no changes made. Cells were only copied and pasted into another file. Is there a way to stop this annoying box from popping up? It slows down the macro by waiting for human input. here is my
I have a workbook with a list of names ("Roster"). The names are on sheet 1 in column B (about 200 names). I have another workbook with a participation form ("Form"). There is a field on the form for the name - sheet 1, cell A4.
populate the "Form" with the names from the "Roster". Each person should get their own form. Once the name is populated from the "Roster" it should save the "Form" as their name. Then the next person on the "Roster" should have their name populated on the "Form" in that cell and saved as their name, etc.
I need to create time sheets for about 30 contract workers.
Each time sheet needs to have their name as well the date for sunday of that week inserted into the form. (once the date for sunday is entered into the sheet, the rest of the dates for the week will be extrapolated out).
Then, once the data is inserted for a single worker, I need that file to be saved using the workers name in the file name.
The script would then open a new time sheet template, insert the second workers name and the date for sunday and save the file. Repeate for next 30 workers.
I currently have the following code that copies a range opens notepad pastes the range opens save dialog and types the file name. The problem I have is with overwriting the existing file.

SendKeys "^V"
SendKeys "^s"
SendKeys "Total_IEDs_Hour_Of_Day_2009.xml"
SendKeys "{TAB}"
SendKeys "a"
SendKeys "{ENTER}"
Everything works fine to this point. Then it opens the do you want to overwrite dialog and I cant get it to hit yes.
