Hello,

I'm using Excel 2013.

I'm hoping you can help me achieve the following outcome using macro:

1) Copy current worksheet and create a new workbook.
2) this newly created workbook much be identical to the source worksheet, except there should be no formulae (content and formatting identical to source worksheet a).
3) in the source worksheet, cell A1 is date and cell B1 is customer name. I want the newly created workbook to be saved to my desktop using the content of cells A1 and B1 with an underscore separating the two strings.
eg: 20171202_JohnWest.xlsx

appreciate your kind assistance with this query and thank you in advance.

best regards,
ram
