Hi Mike
not sure if this is what is causing your problem but i have tried the
code below in a worksheet change event and it is working, it didn't
however work unless i indicate which sheet to check cell B6
Option Explicit
Dim mname As String
Sub filesaveas()
mname = Sheets(3).Range("b6").Value
Application.Dialogs(xlDialogSaveAs).Show (mname)
End Sub
hope this helps

I've checked the procedures of the workbook and couldn't find the
saveas procedure. So I picked what looked closest to what I wanted to
do which is the beforesave procedure.
The save as dialog now shows my combination of cells like I wanted,
but unfortunately, when I hit save in the dialog, the dialog pops up
again. Any ideas?
Here's the code
Private Sub Workbook_BeforeSave(ByVal SaveAsUI As Boolean, Cancel As
Boolean)
Dim pFileName As Variant
Dim docTitle As String
Dim docNumber As String
Dim revision As String
docNumber = Range("g5").Value
docTitle = Range("b6").Value
revision = Range("h5").Value
pFileName = docNumber & "-" & revision & "-" & docTitle
With Application
.Dialogs(xlDialogSaveAs).Show (pFileName)
End With
And thanks for giving me ideas.
