I have a workbook containing a sheet called Floor Plan, and in cell C2 I am using the =NOW() function. I have a macro within the workbook that brings up the Save As dialogue box and enters the contents of cell C2 as the filename, but I can't save it as that because the date is in --/--/-- format. What I would really like to do is save the workbook on close as 'Floor Plan' followed by todays date, automatically if possible.
View 9 RepliesI 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

View 2 Replies View RelatedI work in a fiberglas manufacturing plant where we use a single, daily "count" sheet to track production. At the end of the 24 hour workday we clear the sheet and reuse it. This sheet is published as a web page so others can view it throughout the shift. What i want to do is to be able to either automatically or by running a macro either save each day to a master workbook, where each sheet is assigned the title or name of the month and day, i.e. 1116 for november 16 OR have each sheet saved individually to a common folder with the name of the month and day. I would appreciate any guidance, suggestions or code.

If I enter data in today - when I clicked Save File As it would look for a folder named 2007-12-18 and if it wasn't there it would create one and save all files with todays date in that folder.

How do I save a file with yesterdays date, within a macro. This is what i have now
Code:

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.
Is it possible that each time I save a file it saves the filename along with date and time as the version of the file in a specific path
View 9 Replies View RelatedI want to schedule a print, for lets say every Sunday at midnight. I have managed to find some what of a solution by using the following vbscript and scheduling a print to default printer. Works perfectly if that is all I wanted.
Dim objExcel, objWorkbook, strFile

I do not want to print to an actual printer, therefore if I set my default printer as the document writer, the vbscript gets it as far as the "Save As" page. Is there a way I can add to this vbscript so it will save as well? Can I get it to save as "name"&[DATE], thereby having it save as a different name each time?
Can I change this vbscript to print to a named printer rather then a default printer? I am sure a PDF convertor may be of some assistance with this, but I do not have an PDF converter on my computer, and as this will be carried out on a computer that I will not have administration rights, I can not download one.
