You could just drop the formula in A1 and use the worksheet name itself.

with activesheet
.parent.saveas filename:="C:\" & .name & ".xls", ...rest of options
end with

Hi Dave
Sorry not understand
The workbook is saved as "name"
each week one tab will be formatted and then saved as the "tab name" of in my
case as cell A1 owing to the formula in A1
I,m not fully ofay with VBA, however, can edit the existing macro with the
correct lines

Hope this makes sence

The dots in front of .parent and .name refer to the object in the previous with
statement. In this case, they refer to the active sheet.

So this says to use the activesheet and save the parent (the workbook that
contains that activesheet) to the C:\ folder as the name of that active sheet
(.name still refers to the activesheet).

If you tried this and got your file saved as "NAME", then I'd bet you didn't
copy|paste correctly (or changed somet stuff after).

The formula:
=cell("Filename",a1)
returns the name of the worksheet that holds the formula.

But that name can be obtained directly from the worksheet name itself.

What's week1?

Maybe:

..parent.saveas filename:="c:\" & week1 &".xls
or
..parent.saveas filename:="c:\week1.xls"

What happened to using the name of the worksheet?
