Default Active Workbook

Actually, it is the same format that it started in, so I don't know what the
problem is.

SaveCopyAs doesn't give you a choice of what type of file you're saving as.
It's saving as an exact copy of the workbook file you're saving.

If you need to change fileformat, then .savecopyas isn't going to do it by
itself.

You could:
savecopyas
open that copy you just saved.
save it in the format you want.
close that file.

And the original workbook stays untouched.

I have another kink in this.
I am working in 2007, but original file was .xls and saved as .xls. With
the SaveAs I originally had FileFormat:=xlNormal, but this returned "argument
not found".

Look at SaveCopyAs in VBA's help.

Using Excel 2007, I have a macro where I use a workbook, then save as a new
named workbook. I want to keep the original workbook open. What code
language will accomplish this? Even manually, I do not see how to save as a
copy and keep original file open.

Thank you
