is there a way with excel 2000 to delete a file? i have a workbook that keeps updated records throughout the week. on monday, the first data is calculated. then tuesday a new copy of the book is opened and it gets tuesday's data, adds it to mondays data, and now there's an updated record in one place. wednesday, a new one is opened that adds the monday/tuesday data to it, so on and so forth. what i need is for the previous days workbook to be completely deleted as the users have strict disk quotas to meet.

can this be done through automation?

Can you AutoAverage in Excel?
There is a drop-down next to the AutoSum symbol. Open the drop-down to choose AVERAGE, COUNT, MAX, or MIN
