    Copy cell values from open workbook to closed workbook

    Hi all,

    Let me sketch my situation and question. I have one master workbook and multiple slave workbooks. The slave workbooks are essentially checklists that are created everyday and are filled with for example the person who completed a job and for some jobs the time of completion is manually inserted. In the checklist workbook i added, these are cells J69, J97, J123 and J135 on worksheet "day". When the file is saved, a macro automatically renames the file to "checklist" with the date behind it to a specified folder. What I want to achieve, is to copy the time of completion for check 1, for example, and copy that to the master workbook in the column 1 (check 1) and in the cell to the right of the date at which it was completed (this should be done for all four cells, with cell J97 being copied to column 2 (check 2) at the right of completion date and so on). The master workbook always has the same name and is in the same location and will not be open when above process is executed. I would preferably have the macro run when saving the checklist file. I have added the files to get a general idea of their layout. As I am still new to the macro scene, can someone please help me. I would really appreciate it. If you need any further info, please ask.
