I have a macro that does several things. The last step should be to save the
file to a network drive with a name and quarter number appended to it.

The file save command I have got is: -

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Period ?", FileFormat:=xlExcel9795, _
Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False,
CreateBackup:=False

The ? in the file name should be substituted by the formula as described
below.

The macro is to be run in the month following a quarter (i.e. run macro in
April to get Quarter number to 1, run macro in July to get Quarter number to
2, run macro in October to get Quarter number to 3, run macro in January to
get Quarter number to 4).

How can enter effectively enter a formula in a macro which is along the
lines of ((current month €“ 1)/3)). If current month €“ 1 = 0 then set current
month to 12 and undertake the calculation again.

Any help offer is most appreciated.

Thank You

Pank

Lastly, if my version of Excel is 2000, should I substitute 2000 in place of
9795 in the file format above?

Hi Pank

Private Function MyQ() As Long
MyQ = 1 + Int(Month(DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date) - 1, 1)) / 4)
End Function

Sub test()
MsgBox MyQ
End Sub

HTH. Best wishes Harald

/ 3)

QuarterNum DateValue("12/04/2005")
QuarterNum DateValue("12/05/2005")
QuarterNum DateValue("12/06/2005")
QuarterNum DateValue("12/07/2005")
QuarterNum DateValue("12/10/2005")
End Sub


For the fileformat, omit that property, it will default to the format of the
version of Excel being used.

Harald, Bob,

Firstly many thanks for your prompt responses.

I have used Harald's solution (nothing personal Bob) and I need to know how
to get the symbolic MyQ into the file save.

I have used "Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Period &MyQ" and it saves
it as "Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Period &MyQ". I then replaced it
as "Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Period MyQ" and it saved it as
"Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Period MyQ"

Thanks

Pank

Hi Pank

Everything inside quotes mean "literally". So end them before a variable:

"Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Period" & MyQ

Harald,

Sorry to be a pain in the bo**om.

The end part of the macro is as follows:-

test
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Urban Vision Period" & MyQ,
Password:="", _
WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False

Unfortunately, it does not insert the numeric represented by MyQ into the
file name.

Additionally, you supplied:-

'MyQ = 1 + Int(Month(DateSerial(Year(Date), Month(Date) - 1, 1)) / 4)

Can you please clarify whether the digit 4 is correct or should it be 3 to
represent quarters (i.e. every 3 months)?

And lastly, if you would be good enough to explain the above it would aid me
greatly.

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Pank

They actually give different answers depending upon the interpretation, so
you need to use the one that conforms to your requirement

I do not see that as an available choice in XL2002, so I would guess not.

April to get Quarter number to 1, run macro in July to get Quarter number
to
2, ...

Just another idea. If you run your macro anytime in July, Aug, or Sep, and
still want the previous quarter, perhaps another option...

Qrtr = 499 Mod (Format(Date, "q") + 4)

You must have missed the first part of the post which was:-

The end part of the macro is as follows:-

test
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"Y:\Skip Register\Quarterly Charging Urban Vision Period" & MyQ,

WriteResPassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
