Hi, I'm trying to save a sheet based on a VBA variable name and am getting the error Method 'SaveAs' of object'_Workbook' failed. Below is a snippet of the code I'm using. Everything in the code works until the SaveAs portion.


Code:
fldrPath = "C:\Project\"
strPath = fldrPath & Range("savename").Value & ".xlsx"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=strPath

Any advice would be much appreciated, thank you!

When they said...
When they said you are going to "Excel at life", they meant you "will be doing Excel your whole life".
Before asking you what your variables actually are what do you get with

Code:
fldrPath = "C:\Project\"
strPath = fldrPath & Range("savename").Value & ".xlsx"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=strPath, fileformat:=51

as long as it isn't a Mac.
