Is there a way that when saving a excel file that i can get a name from a
cell or maybe two?

so if i had an invoice excel sheet that when you go to save it would take
the customers name and the invoice number and make that the file name.

try this

Sub SaveWorkbookAs()
Dim CustomerName As String
Dim InvoiceNumber As String
'Change A1 to the cell your CustomerName is in
'Change B1 to the cell your InvoiceNumber is in
CustomerName = Range("A1").Value
InvoiceNumber = Range("B1").Value
Select Case MsgBox("Would you like to save this invoice", vbYesNo)

Case Is = vbYes
Application.ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs CustomerName & _
"_" & InvoiceNumber

Case Is = vbNo
Exit Sub
End Select
End Sub

Mike,

thanks for the help, the code works great.
can i get you to help me on one more thing?
Can i make it so that it will save in the dir that i want? it can be the
same one every time on a network drive.

so if i had an invoice excel sheet that when you go to save it would take
the customers name and the invoice number and make that the file name.

Post the whole code that you are using

I pasted yours and made on modification. I changed the Labels to QuoteName
and CustomerName. Other than that it is just as you wrote it.

Thanks in advance

I figured it out. I had a syntax error in my file path.

On a related note. Is there a way that it can save to a folder named as the
CustomerName.

In other words. I have a folder called Quotes. Within this I have sub
-folders named after each customer where there quotes are saved. Ideally I
would like to save each customers quote in the proper folder and in the event
the customer had no folder yet it would simply save to the main quote folder.

Is this possible.

Thanks

Steve
