The following portion of code should save the active workbook in a folder named "sent paysheets" and rename it with the date shown in cell F15 on the active sheet
Code:
    ChDir "O:\Supervisors\sent paysheets"
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=Range("F15").xls, _
         FileFormat:=xlNormal, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
        ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False

run time error 438 object doesn't support this property or method results.

any ideas?

thanks for looking

Excel Facts

Using Function Arguments with nested formulas
If writing INDEX in Func. Arguments, type MATCH(. Use the mouse to click inside MATCH in the formula bar. Dialog switches to MATCH.
Try
Code:
Filename:=Range("F15").value & ".xls"

Since Filename takes a string so for the first part of your string you have Rang.("F15").value and for the later part you have ".xls" and you need to combine the strings with a &.
