Hi guys,

I would like to create a macro which opens a template and saves a COPY of the template as a new workbook in the same location of the template.

What I had in mind was that when the macro is run the following will happen:


  • Step 1:Opens an already saved template from its location
  • Step 2: A Command Button pops up, prompting the user to insert the name of the new document (the new document will be copy of the template)
  • Step 3: The new document is saved as a macro-enabled workbook with the name inserted in step 2 above.

I had posted the same question in a similar forum, but thought I'd get more insight in this regard:

Macro to open a Template and save a new workbook

Is this possible?


Thanks a lot guys
