Hi All,

I am running a macro from a saved file in folder structure:-

VBA Code:
D:\Club Stuff\\Membership\2021

I would like to save a file to the root structure (i.e 1 folder up).
VBA Code:
D:\Club Stuff\\Membership

What VBA code can I use to achieve this.

The macro already has the following Statement:-

VBA Code:
fPath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"
FolderName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"
Dim CurrentFile As String

Thanks in anticipation.

How can you automate Excel?
Press Alt+F11 from Windows Excel to open the Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) editor.
See if this would help.

VBA Code:
Sub GetFoldername()
  Dim RequiredFolder As String
  
  RequiredFolder = ThisWorkbook.Path
  RequiredFolder = Left(RequiredFolder, InStrRev(RequiredFolder, "\"))
  MsgBox "Is this the folder you want? " & vbLf & RequiredFolder
End Sub
