Saving Workbook And Changing File Name?
Mar 20, 2014
I've got a macro set up to copy a range of cells in one workbook, open another existing workbook, and then paste that range. So far so good.
However, I need the macro to also save a copy of that second workbook with a filename that is derived from the original workbook.
To be a bit clearer, let me give an example of how I'd like this to work. Let's say the original workbook is titled Pickle2014-03-14.Raw.xlsm, and I have a second workbook titled UploadFormat.xlsx. I want to run the macro in Pickle2014-03-14.Raw.xlsm, have the data pasted to UploadFormat.xlsx, then save UploadFormat.xlsx with the file name Pickle2014-03-14.Final.xlsx.

I have numerous spreadsheets that I need to open and unhide a sheet, that has XML data stored in cell A1. What I need to do is copy that data in cell A1 and paste it into a text document and save that as an XML file saved as the XLS workbook name with a date stamp.
I'm running into many issues, the main issue is the saving as current file name, and the formatting of the text/XML file.
Here is my current code, which doesn't reference the current file name and is just very generic. Once I get the saving as file-name correct and the formatting of the xml file correct, I will work on it a bit more.
Code:
Sub Test()
Dim Rng As Range
Dim wb As Workbook
Set Rng = Range("A1:A2")
Set wb = Workbooks.Add
With wb
Rng.Copy
[code]....

ChDir "C:Documents and SettingssysxxxDesktopcode testNew Folder"
ActiveWorkbook. SaveAs Filename:= _
"C:Documents and SettingssysxxxDesktopcode testNew FolderBillsFileName.xlw" _
, FileFormat:=xlExcel4Workbook, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
Here's the code. My only question is how would I change "BillsFileName.xlw" to be the name of the current workbook?
Is it something as simple as
New Folderactiveworkbook.name.xlw

I am trying to write this code where I need to save an excel workbook with a number of tabs to 1 text file with a name of users choice.
I am able to do this if there is a separate file for every worksheet within the workbook but not if we have the same text file to append every time.

I have a master workbook that contains macros and has an xlsm extension.
One macro in the workbook copies one of the worksheets to a new workbook. I then want to save this new workbook as an xlsx file. I use the following code line:
.SaveAs Filename:=Extract_Save_Name & ".xlsx", FileFormat:= _
xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
However, when I run the code I get an error:
"This extension cannot be used with the selected file type."
The new workbook does not contain any macros and if I save the workbook "manually" as an xlsx it saves fine.
If I change the code above to have "xlsm" it works fine - but I don't want that extension.

My 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
[Code].....

I 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?

I am trying to write a macro/program that will save a csv activeworkbook in xls and close it.
The workbook will always be a different name.
The files do not have an extension upon download and formatting.
ie stm0107 (Then they need to be saved as xls. Which is done manually at this time.)
Below are some trial and error attemtps. Thank you for your suggestions.
Sub CloseWorkbook()
Dim Filename As String
'Filename = Workbook.Name
MsgBox (ActiveWorkbook.Name)
Filename = ActiveWorkbook.Name
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename = ActiveWorkbook.Name(".xls")
'Filechange = Replace(Filename, "", "xls")
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWorkbook.Save
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
ActiveWorkbook.Close Saved = True
End Sub

I am setting up a "save as" macro that saves a file by replacing another file in a folder. Even though the macro has been recorded by approving the replacement (the prompt appears "the file --- already exists. Do you want to replace the existing file?"), when I run the macro, I am again prompted about replacing the file. Is it possible to avoid the prompt so the file is automatically saved by replacing the named file?

I was wondering if there is a way to write a macro that will take an excel file that I have called Alldata and then have it copy the first two sheets to a new workbook named something else( FullSparameter_0) and then copy the name of the third and fourth sheet into the new FullSparameter_0 workbook and then copy column A-E from sheet dB Alldata.xls and paste it into the FullSparameter_0.xls workbook in the same dB sheet in the same spot. And do the same thing with the Phase Sheet. i know this sounds confusing, but im really new to the VBA stuff.
I just need 15 different files from the original Alldata.xls that will be named FullSparameter_0, FullSparameter_1, .., FullSparameter_14. but each file will have the same two first sheets, Setup Information and Cal Verification, and the same last two sheet names, dB and Phase, but then in the dB and phase sheets, it will copy over the next four columns of data. so in FullSparameter_0 it will have column A-E from sheet dB in Alldata.xls in the dB sheet in FullSparameter_0 (Same with the Phase Sheets). Then in FullSparameter_1 it will have column A and Columns F,G,H and I (for dB and Phase). In fullSparameter_2 it will have column A and then J,K,L and M. Each FullSparameter_X will have the exact same first two sheets and then the other columns for the last two sheets will be pasted into columns A-E in dB and Phase.

found the following code which works for 1 workbook at a time. I am trying to save 7 workbooks at 1 time. Is it possible?
Sub SaveAsCell()
Dim strName As String
On Error Goto InvalidName
strName = Sheet1. Range("V77")
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs strName
It will work on the first sheet but none after that. I need to have each workbook saved with the value in cell V77. Also if that is possible, is it possible to change where the file is saved as well?
Right now I have a master workbook that will open the 7 other workbooks, paste data onto several pages in each workbook. I would like the macro to save the workbooks. The workbooks are named: 02 Tuesday, 03 Wednesday, 04 Thursday, 05 Friday, 06 Saturday, 07 Sunday, 08 Monday.

I am trying to save my workbook in a specific directory with a specific filename and to incorporate a date field from within the spreadsheet. I have changed the format of the cell so it does not include / as i know this would not work. Saving it is the easy part but adding in the field from the spreadsheet is where im falling over.

i have a workbook blank template for my colleagues to fill in, they fill in this blank template and save it under the serial number of the item they are creating. However a lot of errors exist when they input the serial number inside the workbook where the serial number is a duplicate of a former serial number.
Anyhow i was wondering is there any way when they input the serial number into the worksheet that i could get it to save in a separate workbook and then have conditional formatting to check those serial numbers in the workbook to see if they match?

I will shortly be running a project over a twenty four hour period, where a group of people will be inputting data into a workbook (one worksheet per hour), and what I would like to know is if it is possible, to input some coding into a thisWorkbook module to action a save on the workbook every time an entry is placed in column A (of each worksheet) which is divisable by 10 (a10, a20, a30 etc).

I have a spreadsheet file (excel 2003). I'd like convert it in CSV with delim.
But when I save it appear message that say "the file contains some things not compatible with CSV with delimiter" then I can save it and lose information. After when I open it with Word it looks ok but delimiter is ";"

But I can't undertand what are things not compatible. there are only words and number as general format....(there aren't "," and each other strange character).

I am trying to create a .csv file from an Excel file using VBA and when I use the ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs command, only the first row of text contains " quotes around the text. I have multiple rows that must contain the quotes. I have tried using """", and Chr(34), but then that puts """ (3 quotes) around my text. Is there a different function that I should be attempting to use? I am using concatanation to create a field where I would like the quoted text and am using the ActiveCell.Value command (ActiveCell.Text didn't seem to make any difference).

I have a code that performs a task for me and will save the file at the end. It currently saves as a name I have selected and today's date. The problem I now face is that I will be completing this task several times a day and it will not work as the file names will be the same. Is there any way to save a unique name each time?
My code to save below:
Code:
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _ "T:Lender UpdatesLender UpdatesLloydsCompleteAcknowledged " & Format(Date, "dd.mm.yyyy") & ".xlsm", _
FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False

I am trying to develop a routine that will save the file I am currently working on, then save the current tab as a *.csv file with the name equal to cell "C1" in the same directory as the original file. Then I would like it to close the .csv file and reopen the original file all while being generic with the naming so that if the file name and location changes, the script will still work. I recorded a macro to get me started.

I have and xls list that needs to be saved in a text format without the use of "". The data needs to be read as data not as "data". The only way I have been able to do this is to save the file as a .prn and then rename the extension to .txt. My problem is that in order to rename the prn file i need to exit the file. If I do that then the macro ends and it will not rename. So I have worked around that by saving a second copy and then renaming the first copy. But I do not want to have a second copy. any ideas on how to get around this or to delete the scond copy from within the macro?

I have a workbook which utilizes 2 worksheets to fill a third. I would like a macro to be able to save JUST that worksheet, and not the other two. I thought there was a checkbox allowing you to "save selected" only, but I'm either dreaming, or it was in a previous version of Excel (I know use Excel 2000).

way to construct my save file so that it saves to the correct location.
I have a a FileSearch that lookings in a specific Folder and the sub folders for a file type and then saves them to a different location. Here is the location of the save in regards to the original location...
Filesearch folder= C:path
Savefolder=C:path he folder its found in & " excel converted"
If that makes any sense, basically I need to call the path of the file I opened, but not including the file name.
