Sub Copy_Summary()
Dim ws As Worksheet
Dim ws2 As Worksheet
Dim fPath As String
Dim fName As String
Set ws = Worksheets("Summary Sheet")
Set ws2 = Worksheets.Add(after:=Worksheets(Worksheets.Count))
fPath = ThisWorkbook.Path & "\"
fName = ws.Range("B4").Value & ws.Range("B6").Value & ".xls"
Application.ScreenUpdating = False
ws.Cells.Copy
With ws2.Range("A1")
.PasteSpecial (xlPasteValues)
.PasteSpecial (xlPasteFormats)
End With
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets(Worksheets.Count).Select
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=fPath & fName
ActiveWorkbook.Close
ActiveWindow.SelectedSheets.Delete
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
MsgBox fName & " saved in " & fPath
Application.ScreenUpdating = True
