Saving Or Save As
Aug 4, 2009I have a form which has col A Surname Col D Post Code Col E The month (for example)
through a formular this gives the unic customer reference number surnamepostcodemonth given in col G but when I save the document I have to copy and paste the value in G1 for the file name is there away of pressing Save As and it auto fills the file name?
the actual value in the field G1 is
='Raw Data'!D2&" "&'Raw Data'!E2&" "&TEXT(('Raw Data'!F2),"MMMYY")&" "&'Raw Data'!G2
I obviously want the result "Smith TW6 Jul09" to be the file name when I save it..
Saving In Before Save
Apr 4, 2007I try to save another workbook, say Book_B, inside a BeforeSave routine for say Workbook A. It works fine when triggered by the CommandBar for saving A, but skips the "Save" when triggered by saving A from another workbook, say Book_1. Is this my fault, or some inherent limitation in Excel, and if so:
Following is some simplified code to illustrate the situation:
This is the code for Book_A:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim fName As String
fName = "Book_C"
For Each w In Workbooks
If w. Name = "Book_B.xls" Then w.SaveAs Filename:=fName
Next w
End Sub
This is the code for Book_1:
Sub Book_A_saving()
For Each w In Workbooks
If w.Name = "Book_A.xls" Then w.Save
Next w
End Sub
Auto-Save Code Not Saving
Nov 14, 2006if someone would review the code below and tell me why it does not cycle an autosave more than once. It is supposed to autosave automatically every five minutes but for some reason beyond me it does not. I did not author this but picked it up in a different forum.
Option Explicit
Public vartimer As Variant
Const TimeOut = 1 'set in minutes to whatever amount of time is desired
Sub Timer()
vartimer = Format(Now + TimeSerial(0, TimeOut, 0), "hh:mm:ss")
If vartimer = "" Then Exit Sub
Application .OnTime TimeValue(vartimer), "SaveOpenWorkbooks"
End Sub
Saving File With Save As Dialog Box
Dec 14, 2006I want to be able to have the Save As dialog box come up, but with a File Name already chosen, so that the user can save it as this File Name in any location he/she wishes. I can get the Save As dialog box coming up with my code, but I don't know how to automatically enter the File Name

Jan 19, 2008In my program I have prevented the user from saving the Workbook with the following code
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
Dim p As String
Cancel = True
Do While Cancel = True
p = InputBox("Enter password to save file:", "Password Required To Save", "")
If p = "Enter Password Here" Then
Cancel = False
Else
yn = MsgBox("Wrong password. Try again?", vbYesNo, "Invalid Password")
If yn = vbNo Then
Exit Sub
End If
End If

End Sub
I also need to prevent the user, when they use the save as, from saving certain worksheets. Ex: There are 6 worksheets in the workbook. I only want them to be able to save the first three. Issues: One of the workbooks that I want to allow them to change has a tab name that changes frequently.

Have Code To Block Save But How To Keep Code In Workbook Without Saving The File
Aug 1, 2013My company has files that are already in use. I don't know too many details about how they work, but somehow saving the file will screw it up and my boss has to go back and reset something or other to correct it. Obviously it's connected to some other software somewhere. The code below will block Save and Save-As. BUT how do I get the file to hold onto the code without actually saving the file after the code is added (since the file shouldn't be saved)?
VB:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If SaveAsUI = False Then
Cancel = True

Saving A File Without Saving Macro
Jan 30, 2003I have a spreadsheet that imports data, manipulates it then deletes 2 of the sheets then saves the file under a different name to the network. Is there any way to save this new worksheet without it storing the macros - so when the user open it, only the data is there and they get no prompt to enable macros?

Jan 7, 2009I have created a form in a worksheet which I have added questions too and then locked all cells except the ones where I want the answers in.
I have then added a button to the bottom of the sheet called "Print and Save". This work sheet is called "form"
On a second sheet called "database", I have all the titles of the questions running from a -> k and nother else.
What I want to happen is the user input the information on "form" into the boxes available. Once they have completed the questions, I want them to be able to click on "Print and Save" so that firstly the page "form" prints, and then for all of the answers to be saved in "database" below the titles for each question.
I have had a play, but just don't know where to start. Also, once there is a row of questions below the titles, I don't want it to overwrite information already there, it needs to go onto the next empty row available.
Attached is my excel file.
You will see in the code that I have the code for printing.. I just found this on the net and it seems to work fine for me.

Excel 2003 :: Unable To Allow Users To Make Changes To Workbook But Only Be Able To Do Save As Not Save
Dec 3, 2012I have an expense report, which was originally done in Excel 2003. It still prompts users to open as read only however if they select no, they are not prompted for the password, and it has allowed them to save, so when the next person opens it, they have the previous person's report instead of the clean workbook. I have tried everything to put a password onto it. I know this is really basic stuff, but maybe I am missing a step? I want the end user to be able to make all the changes they want in read only mode and then do a save as, but if the select No when prompted "Open as Read-only?" they should have to put a password in.

Aug 21, 2012What 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.
Macro To Check If Saved Then Save Else Bring Up Save As Dialog
Sep 6, 2012I'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.

The macro itself is saved in personal.xlsx.

Save Back Up Copy Online At Each Save
Mar 27, 2008I have a sheet which I would like to back up online every time it is saved.
I have a sub, OnlineFile(), which I have used many times without any problems, which creates a .BAT file to use ftp to upload files onto our server. As arguments, it takes the local file path that you want to upload (or download to), the name of the file as you would like it stored, the online file path, and whether you want to upload the file onto the server, or download it off the server.
It should be very easy to combine the two: what I tried was:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, cancel As Boolean)
ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & "Rubbish.xls"
Call OnlineFile(ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & "Rubbish.xls", "Rubbish.xls", "wwwrootexcelfilesMasters", "Upload")
Kill ThisWorkbook.Path & "" & "Rubbish.xls"
End Sub
Every time I ran this, the file got uploaded correctly, but Excel had a series of problems. Often the code ran fine the first time it was run, but crashed the second time round.
After a fair bit of troubleshooting, I found that the problem came about when the file was trying to save itself - i.e. after the end of the sub. If you pause any macros from running, it still saved fine, but when the code ran, it found errors, froze or closed excel.
My thought at this point was that the code was fragmented or something. I made a new sheet, and retyped just the relevant bits of code (i.e. the BeforeSave sub, the OnlineFile sub and created the form called by OnlineFile). The problem persisted.
I've come up with a workaround for this now (which uses the same OnlineFile sub & form, and works fine), but it's driving me crazy - why does this cause excel to die? Particularly on the second time through? The code seems far too simple to cause such problems - is there a bug in Excel perhaps (I'm using Excel 2000 on Windows XP).

VBA (Save As) No Error But File Does Not Save
Oct 10, 2011I 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")
