Default Excel "Save as" dialog - when file already exists

Hi, I am trying to do something very simple: code up a "Save as" dialog with
a default filename. The code below nearly works.

With Application.FileDialog(msoFileDialogSaveAs)
.InitialFileName = "C:\Temp\Test.xls"
If .Show = -1 Then
.Execute
End If
End With

The problem is that if the file already exists, the user is asked a "do you
wish to overwrite?" question *twice* - the first time by the dialog and the
second by VBA on the "Execute". If the user responds "yes" followed by "no",
they get a runtime error "Method 'Execute' of 'FileDialog' failed."
What am I doing wrong?
I am using Excel 2002 Sp-2

Thanks in advance
MattM
