Show numbers in thousands?
Use a custom number format of #,##0,K. Each comma after the final 0 will divide the displayed number by another thousand
Hi
Try inserting a line to copy the relevant sheet before making the save.

Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()

Dim path As String
Dim filename1 As String
path = ThisWorkbook.path
filename1 = Range("K2").Text
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Sheets("Sheet4").Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=filename1 & ".txt", FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook
Application.DisplayAlerts = True


End Sub

You have not included the path to the folder in which you want save your file. In this case, the file gets saved in the current directory. So look there for the file. Also, the file format for a text file should be xlText, not xlOpenXMLWorkbook. Accordingly, try the following instead...

Code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
    Dim path As String
    Dim filename1 As String
    path = ThisWorkbook.path
    filename1 = Range("K2").Text
    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    Sheets("Sheet4").Copy
    ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=path & "\" & filename1 & ".txt", FileFormat:=xlText
    ActiveWorkbook.Close SaveChanges:=False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

Note that the workbook is closed once it's saved. However, if you do not want the workbook to be closed, you can delete the appropriate line.

Hope this helps!
