Forcing Excel to save as a different file name
Hi,
I am trying to get an Excel file, which I want to use as a Master File, to save as a different name when users fill in some of the fields. ie Field 1 = User Name.......... The file will automatically save as "User Name". Anyone know if this can be done? Thanks in advance -- Phil |
