Hi all... Need a bit of help. What do I need to add to the code below in order to specify that my output (saveas) file is saved to the same path as the parent macro file? Here's the code I have for my SaveAs:


' Automatic New File Creation and Save
Dim bk As Workbook
Dim myFileName As String
With Worksheets("Input")

myFileName = .Range("TD").Value & "_" & .Range("IBMsn").Value
End With

Sheets("Output").Select
ActiveSheet.Copy ' creates new workbook
Set bk = ActiveWorkbook
bk.SaveAs Filename:=myFileName, FileFormat:=xlTextPrinter
bk.Close Savechanges:=False


MsgBox ("File creation complete! The flat file has been saved to the same directory as this macro file.")

Spell Check in Excel
Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
Try this.
Code:
myFileName = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\" & .Range("TD").Value & "_" & .Range("IBMsn").Value
