Hi softman,

I caught your modified post #2 with the attachment included. I think we can improve upon that, but could we clarify what exactly is we want?

I see that you want to change the way the code example works, in that rather than creating (and sending) a temp wb, then deleting said wb - we would rather save the wb permanently (with a password to open), and send the passworded wb.

Now, you mention that you got it to work once, but it fails upon the second try. (This is because you have the fullname hard-coded)

To get around this, how do you want to handle naming the file? Do you want to offer the user the ability to name the file, or, do you want the macro to still name the new file, but:

1. overwrite a previously saved file with the same date
2. add to the filename, such as the current time (seconds) so that it doesn't find an existing file w/the same name

Hope that makes sense,

Mark

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your replay.

You are on the spot, the steps this must do is as follow:

1. The file name must still be safe as currently set (Sheet1:B15) + date + time
2. No temt dir but to a permanent folder (c:\test)

hope this helps.

Christo

Hi Christo,

Hi Mark,

This is working 100% but I just have 2 questions please?

Q1: I will I change the path:
[VBA] '// We'll skip saving to the Temp folder. I just used ThisWorkbook's path, change //
'// change to suit //
' TempFilePath = Environ$("temp") & "\"
TempFilePath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"
[/VBA]

TempFilePath = C:\Temp & "\" ????

Q2: It currently save the document to B15 and the old filename like:
Filename_heresample_macro.xls 14-04-2010 (5811).xls

How do I get rid of the sample_macro.xls name in the file?

Many thanks

I'm not exactly sure if I'm understanding, but whatever folder you want the wb saved to, it should look like:

Code:

---

TempFilePath = "C:\Documents and Settings\Jahar\My Documents\"
