    So it turns out (a month later ) that this doesn't actually work.

    I looked it up in the help topics and here's the description it gives:

    Displays the standard Save As dialog box and gets a file name from the user without actually saving any files.

    I'm not exactly sure what this method is for.

    So back to my original question:
    What if I don't want to specify the filename and leave it up to the user? I want to point it to a specific folder, but the user can name the file as they see fit.

    Hello Joel,

    The Save As Dialog provides you with an easy to use interface that you can customize. This macro below will change the directory before the dialog is shown. This allows you to view the sub folders and Excel files in the directory you have chosen. Change "NewDir" to the directory you want.
