Macro needs some help.  This macro works, but I want it to do one more thing.  I have a button for it on my ribbon, as I use it often.  I have a hard coded path for this macro, and the filename is in cell B28 of the file.  What I want to accomplish is to save a COPY of the file with the file name in cell B28, and leave my template open, with no cells entered.  I have done this before, but I cannot find the code.  Can anyone help?  Thanks in advance.

 

Sub SaveAppSubmit()

Dim SaveName As String
SaveName = ActiveSheet.Range("B28").Text
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs filename:="D:\Documents\New\" & _
SaveName & ".xlsx"

End Sub

Hi Sherry,

Instead of SaveAs, use SaveCopyAs, will leave the current workbook intact.

@Catalin Bombea,

Such a simple subtle difference is the answer.  Thanks so much.  I was so close, but just could not see it!  Thanks again for your assistance!
