Is there a way to intercept the File Save As command? I tried using Sub
FileSaveAs(), but that did not work.

Hello Tom

FileSaveAs is in Menu File SaveAs. The Button in the Standardmenu is
FileSave. Hope this helps.

PS: Sorry my english is shit. ;-)

Hi Tom,

Public Sub FileSaveAs()
MsgBox "FileSaveAs"
End Sub

If that doesn't work, then something else is wrong.

Remo,

Thanks for the reply. I already have FileSave covered, but that does not
come into play when the user does a SaveAs, so I was trying to create a
FileSaveAs routine to cover that situation as well. I solved this
particular problem. It turns out that I had to exit Word and the open it
again. Once I did that, the macro started working.

Helmut,

I think that I have solved this one, although I have not had any time for
testing yet. But what I noticed is that when I closed Word, and the opened
it again, the FileSaveAs macro started working. Not sure why that would
make any difference.
