Question

I am very new with VB coding, I am trying to save multiple excel file worksheets to csv, I don’t know to do this for multiple sheets, but I found a way to do for single file. I have found code on this site which are very useful for what I am trying to do, only problem is the files are saved with the worksheet name but I am trying to save them with the original file and worksheet name such as filename_worksheet name, I tried to do that myself but keep getting error, could you please advise what I am doing wrong?

The code I am using is as follows:

   Public Sub SaveWorksheetsAsCsv()

   Dim WS As Excel.Worksheet
   Dim SaveToDirectory As String

   Dim CurrentWorkbook As String
   Dim CurrentFormat As Long

   CurrentWorkbook = ThisWorkbook.FullName
   CurrentFormat = ThisWorkbook.FileFormat
   ' Store current details for the workbook
   SaveToDirectory = "H:\test\"
   For Each WS In ThisWorkbook.Worksheets
   WS.SaveAs SaveToDirectory & WS.Name, xlCSV
   Next

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=CurrentWorkbook, FileFormat:=CurrentFormat
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
' Temporarily turn alerts off to prevent the user being prompted
'  about overwriting the original file.

End Sub

I think this is what you want…

Sub SaveWorksheetsAsCsv()

Dim WS As Excel.Worksheet
Dim SaveToDirectory As String

Dim CurrentWorkbook As String
Dim CurrentFormat As Long

CurrentWorkbook = ThisWorkbook.FullName
CurrentFormat = ThisWorkbook.FileFormat
' Store current details for the workbook
SaveToDirectory = "H:\test\"

For Each WS In Application.ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
    WS.SaveAs SaveToDirectory & WS.Name, xlCSV
Next

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ThisWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=CurrentWorkbook, FileFormat:=CurrentFormat
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
' Temporarily turn alerts off to prevent the user being prompted
'  about overwriting the original file.

End Sub
