saving a document in multiple locations

Bovba12 · #1 10-25-2017, 02:09 PM

Hello,
I'm knew to this forum, so forgive me if this query has been asked.
I'm trying to create a macro in Word (using a Mac) to save a document in multiple locations at the same time. Or whenever I save my latest work, it would save simultaneously in two different folders for example.
Thank you!

Imac 2012 OS 10.9.5

Office 2011
Word 14.6.4

Hi!

Here is a code I use from Graham Mayor :

Code:

 Sub Save2Places()
'Written by Graham Mayor
Dim strFileA, strFileB, strFileC, strFileD
ActiveDocument.Save
strFileA = ActiveDocument.Name
'Write down your directory here:
strFileB = "c:\temp\" & strFileA
strFileC = "c:\mydocs\" & strFileA
strFileD = ActiveDocument.FullName
ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=strFileB
ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=strFileC
ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=strFileD
End Sub

Thank you Souriane!
forgive me for asking, but how do i find the path for my destination in my Mac and and after I've found them, how do i code them in the macro.
Thank you!

I doubt that code would work on a Mac - filepaths in that environment are expressed quite differently from a PC (which is what the posted code is for). See: https://community.spiceworks.com/top...cel-vba-script
