Specify the folder you want to save in with a &quot;\&quot; on the end of it:<br />
Application.GetSaveAsFileN<wbr />ame(&quot;C:\So<wbr />meDir\&quot;)

Application.GetSaveAsFileName("C:\SomeDir\")

If the way I suggested makes you feel uncomfortable, or there's another reason you can't use it, you can also do this:<br />
ChDir(&quot;C:\SomeDir&quot;)<br />
Application.GetSaveAsFileN<wbr />ame
</div>


If the way I suggested makes you feel uncomfortable, or there's another reason you can't use it, you can also do this:
ChDir("C:\SomeDir")
Application.GetSaveAsFileName

<div>
ah I should never have doubted you!

Hi,<br />
<br />
I am using the GetSaveAsFilename method to allow a user to select where they wish to save a file. The only problem is that I cannot seem to specify where the default save location should be? Or do I have to use another method?<br />
<br />
Any thanks would be great,<br />

Visual Basic is Microsoft’s event-driven programming language and integrated development environment (IDE) for its Component Object Model (COM) programming model. It is relatively easy to learn and use because of its graphical development features and BASIC heritage. It has been replaced with VB.NET, and is very similar to VBA (Visual Basic for Applications), the programming language for the Microsoft Office product line.
