Thanks Richard. Well, kind of. It isn’t always nice to be right.
But, again, Happy Holidays!

So, it is a little more than 4 years on and the events that drrichard and John anticipated have come to pass. The Republicans on the path to not only self-destruction, but destruction of the country, lead by the most fake snake oil selling pretend “populist” and the Democrats greasing the rails to enable his slide into office.

In reply to drrichard.

I certainly think that is likely Dr R. Hopefully we can study history and morality to avoid such a catastrophe. I don’t however think it will just come from the Republican side, but both Democrat and Republican. They are far more similar in their ideologies then they would care to admit. I like the phrase “The two parties are the right and left wings of the same bird of prey”.
Happy Holidays!

And Americans (at least those who vote Republican) will gladly go down the same path of self-destruction and say, “it’s not our fault!”

Comment on Excel Autosave Backup Macro by John@EconEngineer

In reply to Lee Sullivan.

Hi Lee, is the backup path a subfolder of the original workbook? The SavePathDir string essentially takes the workbook directory and adds the backup path inputted in the “User Editable Directory” . => SavePathDir = ThisWorkbook.Path & BackupPath

If you want the backup path to be a completely separate path from the workbook, you should be able to put the full C:\… directory in the BackupPath string and modify this line:
SavePathDir = ThisWorkbook.Path & BackupPath
to read:
SavePathDir = BackupPath

Hi
This is exactly what I require for my workbook, but I cannot get the file to archive. It keeps telling me the archive folder is not present… I’ve followed the details exactly and I cannot get it to find it.

I’ve even started a new one from scratch and nothing – I’m using 2007 edition

Please help
