Saving a file, if it has a specific name

[kassie]

Hi

I have created a Word document, which I use as a template. Iow, it is a
..doc file, but I open it, save it as some other name, and then work with it.
The application is to have a letterhead, or a fax covering letter available,
which I open, svae as, and then type a letter or covering letter.

Can someone help me with a macro to do this? The part that has me stumped,
is to check if the file has already been saved.
If I open LetHead.doc, for example, I want the macro to check the filename.
If it is in fact LetHead.doc, I want to use an inputbox to get a filename.
However, if I open a file, let's say called Letter to SARS.doc, then the
macro should not execute. To do this in Excel is real easy, but I cannot get
it to read the current filename?

Hi Kassie,

activedocument.name returns the name
activedocument.fullname returns the path and the name
activedocument.saved returns whether
is was saved after the last change.

Thanks Helmut, and there I was trying things like "filename". You were a
great help!
