Save button in Word

[Manix]

I have a command button at the end of a form to prompt users to save the
document to their desktop. Does anyone know the code to do this?

If you have a SOE, then you may be lucky enough to find the StartUp
folder is in their profile path. With a wee bit of editing, this
string can be used to calculate their desktop folder.

Assuming your users will all have Win98 or beyond, the following lines will
return the string for the path to the desktop, to which you can add your
chosen file name.

Const Desktop = &H10&
Set objShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application")
Set objFldrDesk = objShell.Namespace(Desktop)
strDeskPath = objFldrDesk.Self.Path
MsgBox strDeskPath
