Hi everyone!
I have a macro that opens up a template (e.g. MyTemp.xlt), the user fills in data and then clicks a Send button, which shoots an e-mail with the file attached. Now, the filename is not MyTemp.xlt anymore... now it is MyTemp1.xls (which I interpret as a means to retain the template blank, as intended).
I have been testing this macro for enhancements and optimization, when I noticed that the name of the last attachment was MyTemp1(23)(2).xls. Woooaa!...
What does that mean? Are there 23 + 2 copies somewhere in my computer??? Or in the Outlook server??? Should I use a Kill statement, after the e-mailing?
Not pressing, but interesting...

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Eventually found them in the OLK2E Temporary Internet files folder from Outlook.
Never mind. Just added a kill statement and it seems to eliminate the accumulation.
