    Default Open dialog box w/ (command "saveas")

    The title has the question right in it:

    Typically when I use the code

    (command "saveas" )

    No dialog box pops up. Is there some variation I can use so that the dialog box does pop up?

    Thanks.

    Here is what I have in one of my lisp routines:

    (command "_saveas" "" "~")

    It's helped a few people in the office when we have to do a backsave after a bind / purge operation.

    Glad to hear it helped. Found ii some time ago on this forum and it's been on the back burner of the brain.

    Have a good weekend all.
