To keep in Track, we can add some user environment in filename
'=============================================================
Dim fName As String, fPath as string, fTag as String
fPath = "\\your-computer-name\my-shared-folder\" '<-- Set This
to Your Full Path Of Your Shared Folder to Create Backup
fName = Environ("computername") & "(" & Environ("username") & ") "
& Format(Now(), "yymmddhhmm") & " "
fTag = "BeforeEdit"
ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs fPath & fNameStr & fTag & " - " &
ThisWorkbook.Name
ThisWorkbook.Save
'=============================================================
That code will save backup file named
"EDITORCOMPUTERNAME(EDITORUSERNAME) YYMMDDHHMM BeforeEdit -
SomeWorkbook.xlsm"
Ex: *MCMRWKS-ICT(Premor)**1307050837**BeforeEdit - Someworkbook.xlsm*
1307050837 => Year Month Date Hour Minutes (In Two Digit each)
If We want to create backup before user make some change in workbook,
put that on Workbook_Open event
If we want to create backup while saving workbook, then put that code to
Workbook_BeforeSave, and change fTag to "AfterEdit"
That tag will make us more clearly to identify the file, from where that
file edited, by who, and when the do that
Thanks,
