I have used a previous version of this code to save file to a parent folder, but decided to modify it to save to more customer specific folder. BUT, if I try to save this work to my template then run, it somehow disables all macros links and does not give security messagebar to enable?????? (code still works in VBA window, but all GUI links say macros have been disabled...and no security warning messagebar at all)
VBA Code:
Sub GoogleContact()
Dim strFilename, strDirname, strPathname, strDefpath As String
On Error Resume Next
Worksheets("Dashboard").Select
strDirname = Range("A4").Value
strFilename = Range("A4").Value & "_Google"
strDefpath = "C:\MidSouth\PENDING\"
If IsEmpty(strDirname) Then Exit Sub
If IsEmpty(strFilename) Then Exit Sub

MkDir strDefpath & strDirname
strPathname = strDefpath & strDirname & "\" & strFilename
If Not Right(MyFileName, 4) = ".csv" Then MyFileName = MyFileName & ".csv"
Sheets("Google").Copy 
  Application.DisplayAlerts = False
  With ActiveWorkbook
   .SaveAs filename:=strPathname, _
FileFormat:=xlCSV, Password:="", WriteResPassword:="", _
ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, CreateBackup:=False
End With
End Sub

How to fill five years of quarters?
Type 1Q-2023 in a cell. Grab the fill handle and drag down or right. After 4Q-2023, Excel will jump to 1Q-2024. Dash can be any character.
Not related to your issue, but this line
VBA Code:
Dim strFilename, strDirname, strPathname, strDefpath As String
only declares strDefpath as a String, the rest as variants. You need to declare them this way:
VBA Code:
Dim strFilename As String, strDirname As String, strPathname As String, strDefpath As String

I'm not sure how to solve the issue, but there are some questions that might point you in the right direction.
What are your macro settings?
Is the template in a trusted location?
