MS Office Forum / Word / Programming / October 2007Specify path during an autosave event
I have the following code in a Word 2003 template to incrementally name a new document created from the template and then save it with that name. ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:=Format(Order, "00#") & "-" & Format(Now, "YY") Works great except it saves the document to My Documents directory automatically. I want to specify the path that the code will automatically save it to. Please help....Thanks Jack Since all you've given it is the filename, Word uses its default save path, which is My Documents. To put it anywhere else, attach the filename to the end of the path you want: ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:="C:\Somewhere Else\" & _ Format(Order, "00#") & "-" & Format(Now, "YY")  SignatureRegards, Jay Freedman Microsoft Word MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org Email cannot be acknowledged; please post all follow-ups to the newsgroup so all may benefit. > I have the following code in a Word 2003 template to incrementally > name a new document created from the template and then save it with [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Please help....Thanks Jack Jack_Feeman was telling us: Jack_Feeman nous racontait que : > I have the following code in a Word 2003 template to incrementally > name a new document created from the template and then save it with [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Please help....Thanks Jack Try something like: ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:="C:\Some Folder\SubFolder\" & Format(Order, "00#") & "-" & Format(Now, "YY") SignatureSalut! _______________________________________ Jean-Guy Marcil - Word MVP jmarcilREMOVE@CAPSsympatico.caTHISTOO Word MVP site: http://www.word.mvps.org Jay and Jean, Thanks for the great response.
