Hi Everyone,

Is it possible to write a macro that will save the current worksheet I am working on as a NEW tab on an existing file? ie, Clicking on a run macro button will bring up the "save as" screen, allowing the user to pick the file into which he/she wants to save the current workbook. Then, it will automatically create a new worksheet in that file, copy the data in the open workbook to that worksheet, save, and then close. (This will also take off all macros since only the data in the spreadsheet will be copied.) Thanks in advance!
 

Excel Facts

Back into an answer in Excel
Use Data, What-If Analysis, Goal Seek to find the correct input cell value to reach a desired result
keep both the files open.
in the source file right click the relevant sheet tab and click copy or move sheet.
in the resulting window REMEMBER to check COPY SHEET

In the top window "to book" choose the relevant file (destination file )and click ok

if you want a macro use the code statement like this
Code:
Sheets("Sheet1").Copy Before:=Workbooks("Book5").Sheets(1
this macro should be placed in the source file vb editor(i.e.Book 4). Book 5 is the destination file.
