Default Code problem

I am using excel 2003. The following code names the file I want saved and
puts it in the correct folder. I want to be able to change the folder I put
it in based on the value of cell j627.




Dim strappend As String
Dim strpath As String
Dim str3 As String

strappend = ActiveSheet.Range("j8").value
strpath = "c:\field tickets\ "
str3 = ActiveSheet.Range("c8").value
fsavename = strpath & strappend & str3 & ".xls"
If Dir(fsavename) < "" Then
fsavename = strpath & strappend & str3 & "a.xls"

End If
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Devon ASC f").SaveAs fsavename
ActiveWorkbook.Close False


When I put c:\field tickets\ in cell J627 and change the code as
follows it doesn't work. I would appreciate anyone that can help me figure
out whats wrong. The directory c:\field tickets\ does exist and as I said I
can save the file to that directory if I just don't get the directory from
cell j627:

Dim strappend As String
Dim strpath As String
Dim str3 As String

strappend = ActiveSheet.Range("j8").Value
strpath = ActiveSheet.Range("j627").Value
str3 = ActiveSheet.Range("c8").Value
fsavename = strpath & strappend & str3 & ".xls"
If Dir(fsavename) < "" Then
fsavename = strpath & strappend & str3 & "a.xls"

End If
ActiveWorkbook.Sheets("Devon ASC f").SaveAs fsavename
ActiveWorkbook.Close False
