Create a Submit button save filename as A1, submit email unc path, etc.

Ok guys I have a excel spread sheet that creates a value in Cell A1. It also disables the save and save as function. I now want to do a few other things.

I want a submit button that will do the following:

1. Create file in \\servername\folder\valueincellA1.xls
2. This file should then be saved to disable the macro the creates that value in A1. I don't want the value in A1 Changing once this new file is created.
3. The submit button should also bring up outlook and auto populate subject "SSR has been created" and the body should contain unc path to file and its name.
4. The submit button should continue function through itslife because it may be changed and emailed serveral times. Here is a clip of the code I have so far.

Hello briant97,

No need to be sorry, you're new. Did you want the file contents to overwrite any old data?

The original form should always stay blank. So they will open file 1.xls to fill out for example. File 1.xls should always stay the same. However when they when it saves from the field in A1 to say file 2.xls. That file should be able to be changed. It is going to be edited several times before its finished. However 2.xls should disable the function to add the to the cell value A1. It should also save what is then written to it.
