excel - How to insert a date (based on a cell reference) in file Title? -


i have macro saves excel file pdf, insert date within saved file name based on particular cell reference in workbook in "yyyy-mm-dd" date format.

the specific sheet in workbook want reference titled "variables , macros"; particular cell contains date cell b4 within sheet.

the current recorded macro below:

activesheet.exportasfixedformat type:=xltypepdf, filename:= _         "z:\regional weekly report\11 may\forecast template\fiscal 2015 weekly projections 2015-05-24.pdf" _ 

i ideally keep section static: z:\regional weekly report\11 may\forecast template\fiscal 2015 weekly projections , add cell reference date after; such & text('variables , macros'!b4,"yyyy-mm-dd". i've looked @ similar posts (i.e. adding range("b4").value) nothing seems working, i'm missing something.

you try this

excel 2010

sub saveas()     dim savepath    string     dim saveas      string     dim filename    string     dim sdate       string      '// save path     savepath = "z:\regional weekly report\11 may\forecast template\"      '// file name     filename = "fiscal 2015 weekly projections "      '// format on "b4" yyyy-mm-dd     sdate = format(sheets("sheet1").range("b4"), "yyyy-mm-dd")      '// save file name & date & .pdf     saveas = filename & sdate & ".pdf"         application.displayalerts = true          '// export active sheet pdf         activesheet.exportasfixedformat type:=xltypepdf, filename:= _             savepath & saveas          application.displayalerts = true     end sub
