Hi all,

I have a sheet with data in column A.

I would like to use VBA to
1) Open a new, unnamed text document
2) Copy and paste the data into text document
3) Close and save the text document as "name.xml"

Is this possible?

Thanks.

Convert text numbers to real numbers
Select a column containing text numbers. Press Alt+D E F to quickly convert text to numbers. Faster than "Convert to Number"
By no means am I the right person to answer this, but here is something I was playing with...

Rich (BB code):
Sub testCreateAFile()

Set fs = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set A = fs.CreateTextFile("c:\testfile.txt", True)
A.WriteLine ("This is a test.")
A.Close

'MsgBox fs.filexists("c:\testfile.txt")
End Sub

Try

Code:
Sub CreateXMLFile()
ActiveSheet.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:\name.XML", FileFormat:=xlXMLSpreadsheet
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
End Sub
