File "save as"

[B-Dog]

I'm checking some files to see if the filenames are in a certain format and
if not I want to pull up a dialog box that gives me a save as with the file
that is in question. I have all the files in a certain directory and if it
doesn't meet my criteria then I want to do a "save as" to a different
location. How can I do that. I can't seem to get the save as dialog to
grab the filename of the file in question and ask for a place to save it.
Can anyone give me some help with the code for this or point me in the right
direction. Thanks!

Not sure I understand the problem, but will this do it?

Dim FileDialogContr ol As New SaveFileDialog
FileDialogContr ol.Filename = "FileInQuestion .exe"
FileDialogContr ol.InitialDirec tory = "C:\"
FileDialogContr ol.Filter = "HTML Files (*.htm)|*.htm|H TML Files
(*.html)|*.html |TextFiles" & "(*.txt)|*.txt| All Files (*.*)|*.*"
FileDialogContr ol.Title = "Save File"
FileDialogContr ol.ShowDialog()

Sorry that was the file open Dialog.. you want the File Save dialog.

FileSaveDialogC ontrol.Filter = "HTML Files (*.htm)|*.htm|H TML Files (*.html)|*.html |TextFiles" & "(*.txt)|*.txt| All Files (*.*)|*.*" FileSaveDialogC ontrol.Title = "Open File"
FileSaveDialogC ontrol.ShowDial og()

That is pretty much what I'm trying to do. I may have missed something,
I'll try it. Thanks
