Thanks Jean-Guy, I have two separate templates, 1 for quotes and one for.
faxes, I opened the one for quotes and opened the VBA editor and clicked
'this document' on the left hand side and pasted your code in there. Is this
correct? I changed the cell reference and then modified the top code as
follows:
strPath = "M:\Quotes\" & strFaxes & Application.PathSeparator
'Get file name from document table _
(First table, third row, second column)
strName = ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(7, 2).Range.Text
'Remove cell marker from string
strName = Left(strName, Len(strName) - 2)
'Set the new path you wish to use
ChangeFileOpenDirectory (strPath)
With Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs)
.Name = strName & ".doc"
'If the user pressed "Save"
If .Display = -1 Then
'Execute the dialog
.Execute
End If
End With
No luck though... it just keeps opening my documents to save as usual and
the document name is still the default!

Thank you both for your help. I'm using Word 2003 and have a table in my
document, I was hoping that I could use one of the cells in the table to name
the file eg. the Quote Reference cell.
Try this variation of my earlier code:
Dim strPath As String
Dim strName As String
Const strQuotes As String = "Quotes"
Const strFaxes As String = "Faxes"
'Get template name...
If InStr(1, ActiveDocument.AttachedTemplate.Name, strQuotes) > 0 Then
strPath = "C:\" & strQuotes & Application.PathSeparator
Else
strPath = "C:\" & strFaxes & Application.PathSeparator
End If
'Get file name from document table _
(First table, third row, second column)
strName = ActiveDocument.Tables(1).Cell(3, 2).Range.Text
'Remove cell marker from string
strName = Left(strName, Len(strName) - 2)
'Set the new path you wish to use
ChangeFileOpenDirectory (strPath)
With Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs)
.Name = strName & ".doc"
'If the user pressed "Save"
If .Display = -1 Then
'Execute the dialog
.Execute
End If
End With
But, this code will probably have to be modified depending on the exact
content of the target cell...
