    Default SaveAs does not display a dialog box

    Using someone elses file and a system variable is set but i'm not sure which one it is.
    When i have gone to "save as" the dialog box isn't appearing rather requesting the address where to save the file on the tooltip. With some many variables it's hard to work out which one it is. Does anyone know which one it is ?

    Regards

    Stephen

    Does it happens only with 'Save As' dialog box or is it common for all dialog boxes like 'Open' ? If so setting FILEDIA to 1 might help.
    har!s

    FYI, This was also easily found on the Autodesk KB [ http://support.autodesk.com ]

    Have a good one.
