Save a Formatted Excel Form to a new Directory

I COULD REALLY USE HELP ON THIS ONE - THANK YOU!!!
I need to access a formatted Excel form, copy it,
add some cell values and then resave it in it's new directory.
Seems simple enough..........
However, I have only managed to save either empty Excel references to the directory, or the Form's values only without any of the formatting. The code goes basically
something like this:

dim ORGBook as excel.workbook
dim HDCBook as excel.workbook

set ORGBook = getobject("c:\Docs\STP\X.xls")
ORGbook.SaveAs "c:\Output\STP\NewX.xls
set HDCBook = getobject("c:\Output\STP\NewX.xls")
'Fill certain fields
'then resave and close


The problem is with the ORGbook.saveas statement. It is saving an empty reference - NO DOCUMENT ????????

I generally open an instance of Excel:

Code:

---

dim MyXL as Excel.Application

set MyXL = New Excel.Application

---

Then I'd do the rest

Code:

---


Dim ORGBook as Excel.Workbook
Dim HDCBook as Excel.Workbook

set ORGBook = MyXL.Workbooks.Open("c:\Docs\STP\X.xls")
MyXL.ORGbook.SaveAs "c:\Output\STP\NewX.xls"
set HDCBook = MyXL.Workbooks.Open("c:\Output\STP\NewX.xls")
'Fill certain fields
'then resave and close

MyXL.HDCbook.Close SaveChanges:=True
MyXL.Quit
