Another way is to check for yourself:

Option Explicit
Sub testme01()
Dim myFileName As Variant
Dim OkToSave As Boolean
Dim resp As Long

Do
myFileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename _
(filefilter:="Excel files, *.xls")
If myFileName = False Then
Exit Sub
End If

OkToSave = True
If Dir(myFileName) = "" Then
'do nothing special
Else
resp = MsgBox(prompt:="Overwrite Existing file?", _
Buttons:=vbYesNoCancel)
Select Case resp
Case Is = vbCancel
MsgBox "Try again later"
Exit Sub
Case Is = vbNo
OkToSave = False
End Select
End If

If OkToSave Then
Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=myFileName, _
FileFormat:=xlWorkbookNormal
Application.DisplayAlerts = True
Exit Do
End If
Loop

End Sub

Harald,
If the user picks "No" to the overwrite, I want to ask for another filename.

Currently, if the the user picks "no", I get runtime error 1004, Method
"SaveAs of object '_Workbook' failed.

Could I detect error 1004?
