Bob, the following did it:

Dim SvPath As String
With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogFolderPicker)
.AllowMultiSelect = False
If .Show = False Then Exit Sub
SvPath = .SelectedItems(1)
End With
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs SvPath & "\" & Range("Fname")

You run it before, it just stores the selected folder in Range("path")

Hi Bob,

It asks me to define "with"....
Do I run this before or after: ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs
Filename:=Range("filename").Value

Thanks

I have the following function:

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=Range("filename").Value

Range("filename") contains:
=CONCATENATE(path,"\",Name2," ","2007",".","xls")

Problem:
I want to be able for the person to BROWSE and select the PATH to

put
into
the CELL = Range("path") so the person doesn't have to type it in.

thanks
Helmut
