I want to create a macro that will create a new folder called "Fungicide Quotes" under my documents and will save the workbook using the cell reference d4:f4 for the file name, which are merged cells. I have tried the following but can't get it to work. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

Sub Save_wrkbk()

Dim strFilename, strDirname, strPathname, strDefpath As String
On Error Resume Next
strDirname = "Fungicide Quotes"

strFilename = Range("d4:f4").Value
strDefpath = "C:\My Documents\"
If IsEmpty(Filename) Then Exit Sub

MkDir strDefpath & strDirname
strPathname = strDefpath & strDirname & "\" & strFilename

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=strPathname, _
FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False

End sub

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
I must be missing something.

I tried adding the Dir function but I am still getting the same error at the same place.
Here is the code from my latest attempt.

<code>
Sub Save_wrkbk()
Dim strFilename, strDirname, strPathname, strDefpath As String
strDirname = "Test_Plans"

strFilename = Range("A1").Value
strDefpath = CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SpecialFolders("MyDocuments") & "\"
If IsEmpty(strFilename) Then Exit Sub

Dir (strDirname)
MkDir strDefpath & strDirname
strPathname = strDefpath & strDirname & "\" & strFilename

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=strPathname, _
FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub

</code>
