Hi

I created a Sub name but Excel stopped the code from executed and said

"Compile error: ambiguous name detected: SavingANewlyCreatedWorkbook"

The sub name is below - any ideas why?

Sub SavingANewlyCreatedWorkbook()

How to show all formulas in Excel?
Press Ctrl+` to show all formulas. Press it again to toggle back to numbers. The grave accent is often under the tilde on US keyboards.
You cannot have two procedures or functions in the same module with the same name.
That is what that error message is telling you, that you have multiple ones with the same name.
