Is there a way to set the path for Application.GetSaveAsFilename. The
dialogue opens at "My Documents". I would like for it to open at a folder on
a server (not designated as a drive since different users may have the
address mapped differently)

You can use a windows api function that changes the drive. In fact, this works
with mapped drives, too:

Option Explicit
Private Declare Function SetCurrentDirectoryA Lib _
"kernel32" (ByVal lpPathName As String) As Long
Sub ChDirNet(szPath As String)
Dim lReturn As Long
lReturn = SetCurrentDirectoryA(szPath)
If lReturn = 0 Then Err.Raise vbObjectError + 1, "Error setting path."
End Sub
Sub testme01()

Dim myFileName As Variant
Dim myCurFolder As String
Dim myNewFolder As String

myCurFolder = CurDir
myNewFolder = "\\share\folder1\folder2"

On Error Resume Next
ChDirNet myNewFolder
If Err.Number < 0 Then
'what should happen
MsgBox "Please change to your own folder"
Err.Clear
End If
On Error GoTo 0

myFileName = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(filefilter:="Excel Files, *.xls")

ChDirNet myCurFolder

If myFileName = False Then
Exit Sub 'user hit cancel
End If

'do your stuff...
End Sub
