file save as tab delimited change to direct file save

All,

A co-worker inherited a process to create a daily file that gets uploaded into email. Currently the macro prompts the user to click on okay to save the file. I'm not sure how to make the macro to just save the file. It gets written to the same file name each day. The filename is "call_data.txt". I'm not sure why they set it up this way. Everything, I've tried hasn't worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm not sure why they're testing for "Win".

Here's the exiting code that I want to change to just save the file.

If Left(Application.OperatingSystem, 3) = "Win" Then
SaveFileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(CurFile, _
"Text Delimited (*.txt), *.txt", , "Text Delimited Exporter")
Else
SaveFileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(CurFile, _
"TEXT", , "Text Delimited Exporter")
End If

Thanks in advance.

Brian

Tony,

Hey. I've been side tracked and trying to figure it out myself, but I'm back.

"changed the line to,
"Workbook("xxx").SaveAs Filename:="c:\test\tulanesss.csv", FileFormat:=xlTextMSDOS, CreateBackup:=False"

With that line I get "sub or function not defined". If I used "ActiveWorkbook", I get "run time error 438". I'm not sure who created this macro, but I'm not sure why they put all this fluff in. Thanks for any help.

Okay, I'm now getting a "Run time error 9 subscript out of range" error. I'm assuming I'm missing a "Dim", but am not sure what I'm missing. I set up a DIM saveas, but that's obviously not what I'm needing. Any help as always, is appreciated. Thanks!

Sorry about that, thanks for all your help. Here's the code. I've put the line in question in bold.
