Document save question

[Patrick C. Simonds]

Hi I would like to re-ask this question:

I need some code which will allow me to save the active document to
C:\Temp, the name of the document will include contents of TextBox1
(which will be located on UserForm8, which will be open) and then some
standard naming. Something like this:

C:\Temp\XXXXX, Eligibility Data.doc

XXXXX would of course be the contents of TextBox1 on UserForm8.

In my previous response, I thought you were using a document with
FormFields. If TextBox1 is a control on a userform, then you would use

ActiveDocument.SaveAs "C:\Temp\" & TextBox1.Text & "Standard wording that
would be better if it did not include a comma.doc"

I would also suggest that you change the names of the controls on your
userform to ones that indicated their purpose.

Hi,

You can also have it save to a network drive or have it open the save dialog for the user to browse to the save location.
Additionally, you can open the save dialog (programmatically) and automatically select part of the path for the user.
