Hello,

I have macro that exports from Excel and saves to csv in the same location as the original file. I'm finding this is problamatic as some users save the original file in different locations.

I would like to have the macro save the csv file in only one location (and overwrite the old file).

Here is what I have so far:
VBA Code:
Sub ExportAsCSV()

    Dim MyFileName As String
    Dim CurrentWB As Workbook, TempWB As Workbook

    Set CurrentWB = ActiveWorkbook
    ActiveWorkbook.ActiveSheet.UsedRange.Copy

    Set TempWB = Application.Workbooks.Add(1)
    With TempWB.Sheets(1).Range("A1")
        .PasteSpecial xlPasteValues
        .PasteSpecial xlPasteFormats
    End With

    'MyFileName = CurrentWB.Path & "\" & Left(CurrentWB.Name, InStrRev(CurrentWB.Name, ".") - 1) & ".csv"
    'Optionally, comment previous line and uncomment next one to save as the current sheet name
    MyFileName = CurrentWB.Path & "\" & CurrentWB.ActiveSheet.Name & ".csv"


    Application.DisplayAlerts = False
    TempWB.SaveAs Filename:=MyFileName, FileFormat:=xlCSV, CreateBackup:=False, Local:=True
    TempWB.Close SaveChanges:=False
    Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

So instead of
VBA Code:
  MyFileName = CurrentWB.Path & "\" & CurrentWB.ActiveSheet.Name & ".csv"

I need to export to only one file location: H:\Connected Files\Excel\File

Any help is appeciated!
 

Excel Facts

Control Word Wrap
Press Alt+Enter to move to a new row in a cell. Lets you control where the words wrap.
So why not just use:
VBA Code:
MyFileName = "H:\Connected Files\Excel\File\" & CurrentWB.ActiveSheet.Name & ".csv"
