Rename Document in VBA

How can I rename a document from XFred.doc to Fred.doc
using VBA. Can any one please help. I' just starting out
with VBA.

Neil,

Will the document be open or not when your code renames it?

Hi Neil,

The Name Statement will do what you need:

Name XFred.doc As Fred.doc

HTH and have a great day!

The document will be open (the x indicates an incomplete
document) and a dialogue box pops up during the save
procedure to ask the user if he has finished editing. When
he ticks a box it should either rename or create a new one
without the x and delete the old document.
