Default Error on ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs method

Whoops, the DisplayAlerts should be TRUE after saving

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=sWorkBookPath & "\" _
& sFileName & ".txt", FileFormat:=xlText, CreateBackup:=False
Application.DisplayAlerts = True

If you always want to save the workbook, this macro won't ask any

questions.
It will just save.

Application.DisplayAlerts = False
ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=sWorkBookPath & "\" _
& sFileName & ".txt", FileFormat:=xlText, CreateBackup:=False
Application.DisplayAlerts = False

Hi there,
I hope there is a really simple answer to this but I have not been able
to find a simple solution to error trapping the ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs
method. When the following command runs (inside a macro) and I select
'yes' from the dialog box when it says "the file already exists do I
want to replace it?" - that's fine. When I select 'no' or 'cancel' the
following error occurs... Runtime Error 1004: "Method 'SaveAs' of
object '_workbook' failed

The method is: (where sWorkBookPath and sFileName are variables for my
path and filename)

ActiveWorkbook.SaveAs Filename:=sWorkBookPath & "\" _
& sFileName & ".txt", FileFormat:=xlText, CreateBackup:=False

How do I stop the macro crashing when I select 'no'

Kindy Regards
Andy
