VBA Saving single sheet as CSV (not whole workbook) - vba

Question

I appreciate there are lots of entries like save individual excel sheets as csv
and Export each sheet to a separate csv file - But I want to save a single worksheet in a workbook.
My code in my xlsm file has a params and data sheet. I create a worksheet copy of the data with pasted values and then want to save it as csv. Currently my whole workbook changes name and becomes a csv.
How do I "save as csv" a single sheet in an Excel workbook?
Is there a Worksheet.SaveAs or do I have to move my data sheet to another workbook and save it that way?
CODE SAMPLE
' [Sample so some DIMs and parameters passed in left out]
Dim s1 as Worksheet
Dim s2 as Worksheet
Set s1 = ThisWorkbook.Sheets(strSourceSheet)
' copy across
s1.Range(s1.Cells(1, 1), s1.Cells(lastrow, lastcol)).Copy
' Create new empty worksheet for holding values
Set s2 = Worksheets.Add
s2.Range("A1").PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValuesAndNumberFormats
' save sheet
s2.Activate
strFullname = strPath & strFilename
' >>> BIT THAT NEEDS FIXIN'
s2.SaveAs Filename:=strFullname, _
FileFormat:=xlCSV, CreateBackup:=True
' Can I do Worksheets.SaveAs?
Using Windows 10 and Office 365

Answer 1

This code works fine for me.
Sub test()
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ThisWorkbook.Sheets(strSourceSheet).Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=strFullname, FileFormat:=xlCSV, CreateBackup:=True
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub
It's making a copy of the entire strSourceSheet sheet, which opens a new workbook, which we can then save as a .csv file, then it closes the newly saved .csv file, not messing up file name on your original file.

Answer 2

This is fairly generic
Sub WriteCSVs()
Dim mySheet As Worksheet
Dim myPath As String
'Application.DisplayAlerts = False
For Each mySheet In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
myPath = "\\myserver\myfolder\"
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets(mySheet.Index).Copy
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=myPath & mySheet.Name, FileFormat:=xlCSV, CreateBackup:=True
ActiveWorkbook.Close
Next mySheet
'Application.DisplayAlerts = True
End Sub

Answer 3

You just need to save the workbook as a CSV file.
Excel will pop up a dialog warning that you are saving to a single sheet, but you can suppress the warning with Application.DisplayAlerts = False.
Don't forget to put it back to true though.

Answer 4

Coming to this question several years later, I have found a method that works much better for myself. This is because the worksheet(s) I'm trying to save are large and full of calculations, and they take an inconvenient amount of time to copy to a new sheet.
In order to speed up the process, it saves the current worksheet and then simply reopens it, closing the unwanted .csv window:
Sub SaveThisSheetInParticular()
Dim path As String
path = ThisWorkbook.FullName
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
Worksheets("<Sheet Name>").SaveAs Filename:=ThisWorkbook.path & "\<File Name>", FileFormat:=xlCSV
Application.Workbooks.Open (path)
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Workbooks("<File Name>.csv").Close
End Sub
Here the Sheet and csv filename are hardcoded, since nobody but the macro creator (me) should be messing with them. However, it could just as easily be changed to store and use the Active Sheet name in order to export the current sheet whenever the macro is called.
Note that you can do this with multiple sheets, you simply have to use the last filename in the close statement:
Worksheets("<Sheet 1>").SaveAs Filename:=ThisWorkbook.path & "\<File 1>", FileFormat:=xlCSV
Worksheets("<Sheet 2>").SaveAs Filename:=ThisWorkbook.path & "\<File 2>", FileFormat:=xlCSV
[...]
Workbooks("<File 2>.csv").Close
