Assign a Path when saving (URGENT!!)

[kabnl]

Please HELP
I am working in Word (xp) and have a form on a template that enables the user to, when saving, either overwrite or keep both. Overwrite is not problem, but when keeping both word places the document in the default directory (tools, options, file locations...)HOW DO I GET WORD TO LET THE USER SELECT WHICH DIRECTORY ???
The code I am useing is:-

docActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=strPathName & strFileName, FileFormat:=wdFormatDocument

Any suggestions ANYONE ???

Hi kabnl,

I don't know if this will help, but the syntax for displaying the "File Save As" dialog is as follows:

Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs).Display

Good luck.

Steve, you gave an excellent answer. (kabnl is in a state of urgency now, and probably doesn't have time to say so LOL!).

In case anyone wants to do this in Excel, prior to application.saveas I go

dim foo as variant
foo = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(, , , Title:="Set destination dir&quot

Steve and John
Many thanks for your advise - I had already changed the code to use Dialogs, as it seems to be the only way to give the freedom of changing the path.

Once again thanks....
