    What is the current name of the workbook that you want to save?

    This will save it under a new name

    I want to save the workbook as the same name it already is but in a different location.

    I am doing this for quite a few workbooks as well as saving them in another location i am also doing some other stuff on them.

    I am working from a list in another workbook which has the workbook names and using it as a variable to identify and activate the already open workbook

    cheers

    You don't need to activate a workbook to save. In my example, you could replacing newName with currentName will save the file to the new location (defined by sPath) with the currentName. (Since you are using variables, the quote marks should be removed.)
