chr$(34) is that quote mark.

If you don't want it, delete it.

ans = MsgBox("Do you want to save a copy of the file as: " & Chr$(10) _
& fname, vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "Create Copy?")

If you want one at the other end, add one.

ans = MsgBox("Do you want to save a copy of the file as: " & Chr$(10) _
& Chr$(34) & fname & chr$(34), vbYesNo + vbQuestion, "Create Copy?")

Hi,

Can you tell me what the difference is between Chr(10) and Chr$(10)? (The $
part rather than the 10.)

Thanks

Thanks Dave,

I can't tell you how stupid I feel sometimes. Chr$(34) was suppose to be
Chr$(13), but I just couldn't see the mistake I had made.

I appreciate your help.
