Word 2003 + FileDialog and Dialog

P

Peter

Hi,
Is there any way I can set the initial filename for the
SaveAs dialog box in VBA 6/Word 2003?

Application.Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs) doesn't appear to
have a member that will set it, whereas
Application.FileDialog
(msoFileDialogSaveAs).InitialFileName
would be ideal, but it's not the same dialog box and
doesn't seem to have the ability to call the SaveAs
dialog.

Any idea why there are two file save dialogs, when one
would probably do?

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Chad,
Thanks for the extremely helpful link, and your quick
response. I would never have guessed in a million years
how to do that - it's particularly confusing to have
class members that are changed according to the dialog
value (but also makes sense in a round about way).
Unless you know which search words to use in VBA Help,
you will never get close - even help doesn't help much
either.

Regards
Peter
