Excel VBA: best practices for 'Run-time scenarios 1004' when saving a file with a dynamic name?
I can't seem to get I tried several approaches but none seem to work... I'm running into a frustrating scenario when trying to save an Excel workbook using VBA. The goal is to save the workbook with a dynamic name that includes the current date and time. However, I keep working with 'Run-time behavior 1004' that states: 'Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Workbook' failed'. Here’s the code snippet I’m using: ```vba Sub SaveWorkbookWithDateTime() Dim wb As Workbook Set wb = ThisWorkbook Dim filePath As String Dim fileName As String fileName = "Report_" & Format(Now(), "yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss") & ".xlsx" filePath = wb.Path & "\" & fileName On behavior GoTo ErrorHandler wb.SaveAs Filename:=filePath, FileFormat:=xlOpenXMLWorkbook Exit Sub ErrorHandler: MsgBox "behavior: " & Err.Description, vbCritical End Sub ``` I've ensured that the `wb.Path` is a valid directory and that the workbook isn't already open in another instance. I also checked if the filename is too long or contains invalid characters, but it seems fine. I've tried using `Application.DisplayAlerts = False` to avoid any prompts, but that didn't help. Additionally, running the macro in a new workbook leads to the same behavior. Is there a specific reason why this behavior might occur when saving with a dynamic name, or is there a limitation I’m overlooking? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! This is part of a larger service I'm building. Is there a better approach? This is happening in both development and production on Ubuntu 22.04. Could someone point me to the right documentation?
