Pro-business Excel VBA Programming

Sometimes in your business application programming using VBA, you'll find yourself in a situation wherein you need to rename a file. Macro Recording at this point will not be helpful as you cannot do the renaming in Excel interactivity. Here are two ways of doing it at a VBA level:

Sub DoRename()
Name "c:\test.xls" As "c:\test2.xls"
End Sub

Another way of doing it is by using the CreateObject function:

Sub DoMove()
Name "c:\folder1\test.xls" As "c:\folder2\test.xls"
End Sub
