I plan to use a row delete script (I have this already) to get rid of
old data here at work. Before I run this though (I will be running it
fairly frequently) I thought I should backup the file I am working on.
Is it possible to write a script which creates a backup of the current
Excel file I am working on, without changing the filename of the 'live'
workbook, and which names the backup file with the time and date so it
is both unique and also searchable (EG 03122003-1645.xls or similar) ?
Ideally I would combine the two scripts so that once the script is run
a backup is created and then the rows are deleted subject to my
criteria. Basically if I forget to back up and then delete the data in
error it could cost me my job.
Any thoughts welcome !!
TIA
