If you are opening a document and going immediately to Save As, your
document probably should be a template and you should be using File New.
Then the document on the screen will have all the text from your template
but will be a new document and the user will have to give it a new name to
save it. It is very difficult to write over the original template.

To get the SaveAs dialog box, you need to write code. If a template is not
what you want, write back and I or someone else will give you directions.

I have a macro to open a document but I want it to also give me the "save
as"
screen right away. I tried this but can't click stop on the macro from
the
"save as" screen. Thanks!
