    Question SaveAs command does not display a dialog box

    This should be an easy question for you all. I can't get my "save as" window to pop up to select the folder I want. Instead the command line reads-save to 2007/2005/2004/ Etc. and the it automatically picks the folder. How do I get my pop-up window to come back?
    Thank you so much-
    Nora

    Default Re: SaveAs command does not display a dialog box

    Well, here's how the macro should read for the "Save as" command:
    ^C^C_saveas

    you could also try the keyboard shortcut:
    CTRL+SHIFT+S

    Maybe go to the CUI, find the command "Save as" under the command list, highlight it and on the right under properties there is a button that Resets Defaults.

    Or is it that FILEDIA is set to 0 instead of 1?
