I have a workbook I enter data and have to wait for product approval before sending to a different workbook that everyone else looks at that has all the approved products. Right now I have 2 different buttons to use to send the entire row of selected cell to other workbook based on the product type in column# 10 in the selected row.

Can I consolidate these 2 buttons so that the macro pastes the row into the correct sheet based on the cell value in column # 10 in the selected row? Here is the code I have for the first sheet.

VBA Code:
Sub Button3_Click()

                         'enters date approved

Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 9) = Now()

                          'enters days waited for approval

Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 13) = Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 9) - Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 8)

Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 13).NumberFormat = "0"

            'copy entire row of selected cell and paste to wb sheet 1
Selection.EntireRow.Select

Selection.CopyDim wb As Workbook

Set wb = Workbooks.Open("filename.xlsx")

wb.Worksheets("Sheet1").Select

On Error Resume Next

Dim xCell As Range

For Each xCell In ActiveSheet.Columns(1).Cells

If Len(xCell) = 0 Then

xCell.Select

Exit For

End If

Next

Selection.PasteSpecial (xlPasteValues)

Application.DisplayAlerts = False

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=" filename.xlsx"

ActiveWorkbook.Close

Application.DisplayAlerts = True

End Sub

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
Well, never mind, I actually figured it out. answer was to insert the below in place of wb.Worksheets("Sheet1").Select

VBA Code:
If Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 10) = "A" Then
        Set wb = Workbooks.Open("filename.xlsx")
        wb.Worksheets("A").Select
    ElseIf Cells(Application.ActiveCell.Row, 10) = "B" Then
        Set wb = Workbooks.Open("filename.xlsx")
        wb.Worksheets("B").Select
    End If
