Hi

I am using the beforesave function and I want to determine is the user has saved or saved as, because if they have saved as I want to be able to change a cell to the new file name before they save. Is this possible?

Easy bullets in Excel
If you have a numeric keypad, press Alt+7 on numeric keypad to type a bullet in Excel.
Try

Code:
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As Boolean)
If Not SaveAsUI Then
'
' do stuff
'
End If
End Sub
