Please see the code below. I am trying to call two subroutines in excel vba with this code. One to create a new version of current file with a V1 naming convention.. other to save a log of who used the file.
Now as soon as I open the excel the log subroutine runs and I see log file created/ entries added but the create version subroutine doesn't run. When I run it like a macro then both the subroutine run.
What am I doing wrong here.. I want both routines to run when I press save in excel. please help!!
Sub SaveNewVersion_Excel()
Call Workbook_Open
Dim FolderPath As String
Dim myPath As String
Dim SaveName As String
Dim SaveExt As String
Dim VersionExt As String
Dim Saved As Boolean
Dim x As Long
TestStr = ""
Saved = False
x = 2
'Version Indicator (change to liking)
VersionExt = "_v"
'Pull info about file
On Error GoTo NotSavedYet
myPath = ActiveWorkbook.FullName
myFileName = Mid(myPath, InStrRev(myPath, "\") + 1, InStrRev(myPath, ".") - InStrRev(myPath, "\") - 1)
FolderPath = Left(myPath, InStrRev(myPath, "\"))
SaveExt = "." & Right(myPath, Len(myPath) - InStrRev(myPath, "."))
On Error GoTo 0
'Determine Base File Name
If InStr(1, myFileName, VersionExt) > 1 Then
myArray = Split(myFileName, VersionExt)
SaveName = myArray(0)
Else
SaveName = myFileName
End If
'Test to see if file name already exists
If FileExist(FolderPath & SaveName & SaveExt) = False Then
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FolderPath & SaveName & SaveExt
Exit Sub
End If
'Need a new version made
Do While Saved = False
If FileExist(FolderPath & SaveName & VersionExt & x & SaveExt) = False Then
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs FolderPath & SaveName & VersionExt & x & SaveExt
Saved = True
Else
x = x + 1
End If
Loop
'New version saved
MsgBox "New file version saved (version " & x & ")"
Exit Sub
'Error Handler
NotSavedYet:
MsgBox "This file has not been initially saved. " & _
"Cannot save a new version!", vbCritical, "Not Saved To Computer"
End Sub
Function FileExist(FilePath As String) As Boolean
Dim TestStr As String
'Test File Path (ie "C:\Users\tinker\Desktop\Status_Reports\Version\Metrics_Mar15.xlsm")
On Error Resume Next
TestStr = Dir(FilePath)
On Error GoTo 0
'Determine if File exists
If TestStr = "" Then
FileExist = False
Else
FileExist = True
End If
End Function

Private Sub Workbook_Open()
