Hello,
I'm receiving a method 'SaveAs" of object' _workbook failed error when I attempt to save a newly created file on to
a shared drive. I have the correct Directory path, and I am able to access another file within that directory, but
when I attempt to save the file I just created I get that error, and the line that is bolded red is the line that is
highlighted when I click on Debug. Here's the code I'm working with.

Rich (BB code):
Sub CopyNeg()
    'Dim OldWb As String
    Dim strFullFileName As String
    Dim NewWb As Workbook
    Dim NewWs As Worksheet
    Dim CurWs As Worksheet
    
    'OldWb = objDrv.DriveLetter & ":\SC Support Desk\Negative Replenishment Reports\_CHARTER_REPLEN"
    strFullFileName = "\\cable.comcast.com\corp-DFS\CHQ-Shared\SC Support Desk\Negative Replenishment Reports\Negative Replenishment file_" _
    & Format(Date, "mm.dd.yyyy") & ".xlsx"
    'OldWb.Close
    
    Set CurWs = ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets("Replen Report")
    Set NewWb = Workbooks.Add
    Set NewWs = NewWb.Sheets(1)
    CurWs.Range("A:T").AutoFilter Field:=20, Criteria1:="<0"
    CurWs.AutoFilter.Range.EntireRow.Copy
    NewWs.Range("A1").PasteSpecial xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats
    NewWb.SaveAs Filename:=strFullFileName, FileFormat:=xlsx
    
    'OldWb.Close
        
    
End Sub
All help is greatly appreciated!

Thank you Fluff. I thought I tried that before, and was receiving a different error. Do you think you might be able to assist me on another post I've placed regarding too many attachments being placed into an email I've created using VBA?

You're welcome & thanks for the feedback.

As for emails, I won't be able to help as I don't use Outlook.
