Control button to create a one time folder, save with date and send work sheet to email
Karol-
Everyone has to start somewhere! I'm happy to assist you. I have made some code comments below to help explain what the code is doing and where you may have potentially gone wrong. Please let me know if you need more assistance. It may help if you can explain in more detail what you are trying to accomplish.
Sub AFolderVBA2()
Dim i As Integer
For i = 1 To 5
'This will iterate through Range A1 to Range A5. and make a new folder directory labeled as such...
MkDir "C:\Users\kapo\Desktop\Catering\Weekly food Order\" & Range("A" & i)
Next i
End Sub
Sub Save()
'Saves this workbook in the following path
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:="C:\Users\kapo\Desktop\Catering\Weekly food Order\file00-00-2000\.xlsm", FileFormat _
:=xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub
Sub SendMail()
Dim OutlookApp As Object
Dim OutlookMail As Object
Set OutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")
Set OutlookMail = OutlookApp.CreateItem(0)
'Supress Errors
On Error Resume Next
'Create email....
With OutlookMail
.To = "" 'You need a recipient...
.CC = ""
.BCC = ""
.Subject = "Weekly Order Note"
.Body = "Good Day to All, Please find Attached order sheet for the week. Please Acknowledge reciept of the attached document, thank you. Best Regards, Camp Boss"
.Attachments.Add Application.ActiveWorkbook.FullName 'This will attach the ActiveWorkbook (This workbook)
.Display 'This displays the email you are about to send.
'You can use this line until the process works perfectly.
'Then you can change it back to using .Send
'.Send
End With
End Sub
Try changing this procedure as follows:
Sub Save()
'I have changed it to work sheet as I only want the order summary sheet to be saved with the currwent date of the order made.
ActiveWorksheet.SaveAs Filename:="C:\Users\kapo\Desktop\Catering\Weekly food Order " & Format(Now(), "DD-MM-YYYY") & ".xlsm", FileFormat _
:=xlOpenXMLWorksheetkMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False
End Sub

I am getting still Errors for some sort of unknown reason.
May be its the other button formulas that are malfunctioning?
I think I am not understanding well the book VBA code for dummies.
So far each for each code and formula when I became too Difficult I had to ask for help.
at times I find writing a code not so logical.
Even my copy and paste code seems to be messed up.
Cannot attach the book as the website removes it

Before attaching a file try using the VBA code below (You have Additional End Sub and Private Sub XXXX() statements that needed to be removed. They need to be paired together.) If this code won't work then go ahead and use my below instructions to attach the file. :
Sub AFolderVBA2() Dim i As Integer For i = 1 To 5 MkDir "C:\Users\kapo\Desktop\Suisca Catering\Weekly food Order\" & Range("A" & i) Next i End Sub Sub Save() ActiveWorksheet.SaveAs Filename:="C:\Users\kapo\Desktop\Catering\Weekly food Order " & Format(Now(), "DD-MM-YYYY") & ".xlsm", FileFormat _ :=xlOpenXMLWorksheetkMacroEnabled, CreateBackup:=False End Sub Sub SendMail() Dim OutlookApp As Object Dim OutlookMail As Object Set OutlookApp = CreateObject("Outlook.Application") Set OutlookMail = OutlookApp.CreateItem(0) On Error Resume Next With OutlookMail .To = "campboss@suisca.com" .CC = "" .BCC = "" .Subject = "Weekly Order Note" .Body = "Good Day to All, Please find Attached order sheet for the week. Please Acknowledge reciept of the attached document, thank you. Best Regards, Camp Boss" .Attachments.Add Application.ActiveWorksheet.FullName ' .Display End With End Sub Private Sub CommandButton4_Click() Range("G12").Copy Range("G2666").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats 'Copy and PasteSpecial a between worksheets Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A2").Copy Worksheets("Sheet4").Range("A2").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormulas 'Copy and PasteSpecial between workbooks Workbooks("Book1.xlsx").Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").Copy Workbooks("Book2.xlsx").Worksheets("Sheet1").Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteFormats 'Disable marching ants around copied range Application.CutCopyMode = False End Sub Private Sub CommandButton5_Click() Dim sbClearCellsOnlyData() Range("G12:G2666").ClearContents End Sub Private Sub CommandButton7_Click() Application.Dialogs(xlDialogPrint).Show End SubTry saving the file as an .xlsx. Then post it to the forum along with the code you have written. The forum doesn't allow you to attach macro enabled workbooks because of security risks.
