Can someone show me how to browse for a folder to save a file and then once the user has identified a folder copy a file across to it?

I haven't got the details yet of the file that will need copying across but I will have the full path when it comes to it.

If you start asking yourself if now is a good time to save your Excel workbook, the answer is Yes
Use a function:

Code:
Function GetFolder() As String
  With Application.FileDialog(4)
    .Title = "Pick a Folder"
    .InitialFileName = Environ("UserProfile") & "\Documents\"
    .ButtonName = "Select Folder"
    If .Show Then GetFolder = .SelectedItems(1)
  End With
End Function

Does the user also need to choose the file to be copied, or is it always at a fixed path? Not enough info given...
