The problem is this:
Just because you gave a filename a .xlsm extension doesn't MAKE it a .xlsm file!
You could just as easily used:
& ".docx"
and it would not make it a Word document.
Probably Windows is giving you the "corrupt document" message because it's
trying to open a file that SAYS it's a .xlsm file, but doesn't LOOK like a
.xlsm file.
When using ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs,
you can use:
FileFormat:= xlOpenXMLWorkbookMacroEnabled
but SaveCopyAs does not allow this option.
The way I've handled this in the past is:
Save the current file,
use SaveAs to save as a different filetype.
Open the original file
close the "New" file.
