I'm looking to create a macro in Excel 2007 which will do the following:
- copy the formatting and values from a sheet called 'report',
- insert this into a new workbook, naming the file with the value in 'B9' and appending the word 'report' to this
- when copying the data into a new workbook, the formatting of the original should be retained, but cell contents pasted as values rather than formulas
- prior to saving the file with the above name, the user will be prompted to choose their folder
- at the end, a message will be displayed alerting the user that the file has been saved successfully
Any assistance would be much appreciated. Thanks.
I have attempted to do this, but my experience with VBA is limited. Here is what I have done so far...
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets("Report").Copy
With ActiveSheet.UsedRange
.Value = .Value
End With
ActiveSheet.DrawingObjects.Delete
Set wbNew = ActiveWorkbook
wbNew.SaveAs Application.GetSaveAsFilename
wbNew.Close True
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
