create new workbooks using an existing Excel template

[panama407]

Hello,

Is there any way to use a VBA macro to create new workbooks using an existing Excel template and have the new workbooks saved with each of the business days of the month/s?

such as SSB Template Update.xls being saved as SSB 09.03.18.xls.


Thank you,

Peter

This is as far as I have gotten:

Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'

'
ChDir "O:\ACCTG\Team E\Tasks\Wrapper Notifications\SSB\2018\10 October"
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
"O:\ACCTG\Team E\Tasks\Wrapper Notifications\SSB\2018\10 October\SSB 10.01.18.xls" _
, FileFormat:=xlExcel8, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub

.

Option Explicit


Sub SaveSheet()
  Dim strPath  As String


  Application.ScreenUpdating = False
  Application.EnableEvents = False


  With Worksheets("SSB")
    strPath = CreateObject("Wscript.Shell").SpecialFolders(4) & Application.PathSeparator & _
    ActiveSheet.Name & " " & .Range("B1").Value & ".xls"
    .Copy
  End With
  
  ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs strPath, xlOpenXMLWorkbook


  ActiveWorkbook.Close False
  Application.EnableEvents = True
End Sub

Thank you for replying but the Excel template that I want copied has column headings and other static information in some cells and it is on Sheet1. I was looking to have the whole Excel "Workbook" template copied and saved out on the network drive under the new name with "each" of the business days of the month. I have 7 Excel template workbooks that I copy and created for each business day of the month. For example I had to make 20 copies of each template for September 2018. SSB 09.03.18.xls, SSB 09.04.18.xls, SSB 09.035.18.xls, etc.

Here is one way :

Option Explicit




Sub Macro1()
'
' Macro1 Macro
'


'
Dim i As Integer
Dim j As Integer


j = 1
For i = 1 To 31
    For j = 1 To 31
        ChDir "C:\Users\My\Desktop\"
        ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
        "C:\Users\My\Desktop\test\SSB 10." & j & ".18.xls" _
        , FileFormat:=xlExcel8, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
        ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
    Next j
    If j = 32 Then Exit Sub
Next i
End Sub

You will need to edit the paths for your system.

You are welcome.

Woud it be too hard to use the Workday to filter out weekend days?

Excludes weekends :

Sub WBforMonth2()
   Dim Dte As Date
   Dim i As Long
   
   Dte = InputBox("Please enter a date")
   ChDir "C:\Users\My\Desktop\"
   For i = 1 To Application.NetworkDays(Dte, (Application.EoMonth(Dte, 0)))
      ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:= _
        "C:\Users\My\Desktop\test\SSB " & Format(Application.WorkDay(Dte, i), "mm-dd-yyyy") & ".xls" _
        , FileFormat:=xlExcel8, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
        ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
   Next i


End Sub
