DOH!!! 3 minutes later....

Try this:

With Word.Application.Dialogs(wdDialogFileSaveAs)
    .Name = "c:\FullPath\"
    ' .Show ' This will just show the dialog and you can retreive 
                ' the full path and do the save via code
    '.Execute ' This will execute the save once the user click OK
End With

You may need to trap for errors in both cases if the user clicks Cancel.
