hi
i DO want to overwrite existing file when i export new file
what do i need to change in my code to check if file exists, kill it and save new file?
Rich (BB code):
Sub ExportCurrentBilling()
     
    Dim wb As New Workbook
    Dim SaveFolder As String: SaveFolder = "M:\all\FI Payments\Billing Services 10_11_13_14_15_16\CURRENT\"
    Dim FileName As String
    Dim tbl As ListObject
          
    With ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Billing")
        FileName = "Current"
        Set tbl = .ListObjects(1)
        tbl.Range.Copy
    End With
    
    Set wb = Workbooks.Add
    wb.Activate
    wb.Sheets(1).Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteAll
    Selection.Columns.AutoFit
             
    FullFileName = FileName & ".xlsx"
    
    'Save and Close New WB
    wb.SaveAs SaveFolder & "\" & FullFileName, xlOpenXMLWorkbook
    wb.Close SaveChanges:=False
    
    'Back to Main WB
    ThisWorkbook.Activate
    
    'Inform User
    MsgBox "File Export Complete", vbInformation
    
End Sub
 

Excel Facts

How can you turn a range sideways?
Copy the range. Select a blank cell. Right-click, Paste Special, then choose Transpose.
Hi ]rjmdc,

disabling the messages from Excel should do the job:

Code:
 'Save and Close New WB
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
wb.SaveAs SaveFolder & "\" & FullFileName, xlOpenXMLWorkbook
wb.Close SaveChanges:=False
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Ciao,
Holger
