how to specify file name but let user chose file location?

Hi!

I have a code to specify the file name, (see below) however it saves to the last folder I was in. I need to be able to let users choose which location to save the file. However, I also want to set the file name.

I've looked on this forum and googled, tried the codes but they are very long and complicated. I saw one post that used the "save to" function, which brought up the Save As dialogue box, however I couldn't get my pre-named file to be chosen.

I hope there is a simple solution out there! Thanks!!!!!!

I use this for selecting and storing a folder path the user selects:

Then slip that fPath variable into your save command:
