Hi all,

I've managed to get my project nearly finished with a lot of help from this forum and i thank you all who helped.

i have one last request thou, Which is to point me in the right direction. im trying to generate vba code which does this?
when i click on the save button it asks me to choose from a drop down list of 8 names. e.g BRN,POSS,EPOS which will be folders it creates before it saves the workbook in it.....??

I am already working with this

Sub FolderSaves()

Dim saveAsFileName As String
Dim folders As Variant, i As Integer, path As String

saveAsFileName = "C:\" & Year(Date) & "\" & MonthName(Month(Date)) & "\BRN\" & Format(Date, "mm.dd.yy") & ".xlsm"

folders = Split(saveAsFileName, "\")
path = folders(0)
For i = 1 To UBound(folders) - 1
path = path & "\" & folders(i)
If Dir(path, vbDirectory) = "" Then MkDir path
Next

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

' Save File
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs fileName:=saveAsFileName, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False

Application.DisplayAlerts = True

' Popup Message
MsgBox "File Saved As:" & vbNewLine & saveAsFileName

End Sub

is this possible???
 

Excel Facts

Links? Where??
If Excel says you have links but you can't find them, go to Formulas, Name Manager. Look for old links to dead workbooks & delete.
Code:
Sub FolderSaves()
Dim saveAsFileName As String
Dim folders As Variant, i As Integer, path As String
Dim vDir, vFile

On Error Resume Next
vDir = "C:\" & Year(Date) & "\" & MonthName(Month(Date)) & cboBoxName
vFile = Format(Date, "mm.dd.yy") & ".xlsm"
MkDir vDir
saveAsFileName = vDir & "\" & vFile

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
   ' Save File
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=saveAsFileName, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
  ' Popup Message
MsgBox "File Saved As:" & vbNewLine & saveAsFileName
End Sub
