Hi,

I know how to test a defined variable, but for the life of me I can't figure out how to test whether a user follows through the SaveAs prompt that I'm calling below:

Code:
    [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=If]#If[/URL]  Mac Then
    
        MsgBox "Please save the file somewhere it can easily be found, such as your desktop. You must save the file as a ""Macro-enabled Worksheet(.xlsm)"" file type, otherwise it will be unreadable."
        
        Name = Application.GetSaveAsFilename(InitialFileName:=Worksheets("HR Use Only").Range("B7").Value & "_" & Worksheets("Hr Use Only").Range("B4").Value & "_" & Worksheets("ConditionalFormat").Range("E18").Value & "_PAF Draft_" & Format(Worksheets("HR Use Only").Range("D5").Value, "mm-dd-yyyy"))
[COLOR=#0000ff]        ThisWorkbook.SaveCopyAs Filename:=Name[/COLOR]
        
        MsgBox "Once you close this message, an email will be created in Outlook. Please attach the file you just saved to this email and press send."
        
        ThisWorkbook.FollowHyperlink (Worksheets("MacLink").Range("B8"))
    
        MsgBox "The email has been created. If you do not see the email, please check your Outlook application in your dock."


    [URL=https://www.mrexcel.com/forum/usertag.php?do=list&action=hash&hash=Else]#Else[/URL] 
            'removed to be concise

If they don't actually save the file, I want it to exit the sub. Is there a way to set a variable to test based on whether or not they save?

Thanks!
 

Excel Facts

Difference between two dates
Secret function! Use =DATEDIF(A2,B2,"Y")&" years"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"YM")&" months"&=DATEDIF(A2,B2,"MD")&" days"
If the return value of Name is FALSE, this means Cancel is pressed.
The Name variable (bad choice of name) should be declared as Variant.

Thanks bobsan42! I had my variable defined, I just thought the Name would only return false if it couldn't find the references listed. Good to know!
