From: Ed from AZ on 23 Mar 2010 15:24 I'm working in Vista with Word and Excel 2007. I'm writing a macro in Excel that opens and reads a file using FSO, creates a new Word doc and writes the file data into the doc, and then saves the doc so I can use Word ranges to grab the data and write it into the Excel file. Every time the code gets to the SaveAs command for the Word document, the code balks and throws a run-time error. If I click Debug and hit either F8 or F5, the command immediately executes and the code continues running just fine. The error is: -2147417851 (80010105) Method 'SaveAs' of object '_Docuement' failed I tried adding Sleep in case there was something going on that wasn't finished, and even threw in a DoEvents. No joy! If anyone can help me over this hump, I'd greatly appreciate it! Thanks! Ed strPath = Left(strFile, Len(strFile) - 4) Sleep (15000) DoEvents objDoc.SaveAs strPath & ".docx" 'Both statements throw the error 'objWd.Documents(objWd.Documents.Count).SaveAs Filename:=strPath & ".doc" Sleep (15000)
From: Doug Robbins - Word MVP on 23 Mar 2010 17:22 What does strFile contain, or more specifically, what is its extension. If the extension is docx, your code will be trying the save a file with a name that has two periods before the extension. Try objDoc.SaveAs strPath & "docx" -- Hope this helps.

From: Ed from AZ on 23 Mar 2010 17:37 Hi, Doug. No - the end of strFile is ".xml". So it's a clean string without the "." And when it errors and I Debug, then F8 or F5, it saves fine, with no changes to the file path and name strings.

From: Doug Robbins - Word MVP on 23 Mar 2010 17:47 You may need to set the SaveFormat to wdFormatDocument as you are converting from one format to another -- Hope this helps.

I'm not sure, though - I am not opening the XML in Word and resaving as a doc. The XML is opened in FSO and read, a new do is created using the Word app, contents of the XML are pasted into the new unsaved Word doc, and then I'm trying to save the new doc. Is there some interaction between Word and FSO that I might not be aware of that's causing this?
