Solved: MS Word - Filename argument of SaveAs Method of ActiveDocument

[GeoffreyB]

Do you understand why that square was there, and what it actually IS?

Formatting symbol.

I ask because the answer is the same if you, say, tried to use the Range.Text of the contents of a table cell. Using the Range.Text of a table cell as a filename in a SaveAs would also return the same file permission error.

I know. I tried a table instead of a text box at one point.

Oh, and could you please state in posts what version of Word is applicable?

Will do.

Glad you got it worked out.

Thanks.
