CanSave Property

Microsoft Word Visual Basic

True if the specified file converter is designed to save files. Read-only Boolean.

Note  The CanOpen property returns True if the specified file converter can be used to open (import) files.

Example

This example determines whether the WordPerfect converter can be used to save files. If the return value is True, the active document is saved in WordPerfect 6.x format.

Dim lngSaveFormat As Long

If Application.FileConverters("WordPerfect6x").CanSave = _
        True Then
    lngSaveFormat = _
        Application.FileConverters("WordPerfect6x").SaveFormat
    ActiveDocument.SaveAs FileName:="C:\Document.wp", _
        FileFormat:=lngSaveFormat
End If
		

This example displays a message that indicates whether the third converter in the FileConverters collection can save files.

If FileConverters(3).CanSave = True Then
    MsgBox FileConverters(3).FormatName & " can save files"
Else
    MsgBox FileConverters(3).FormatName & " cannot save files"
End If
