The SaveAsEx method is identical to the SaveAs method, except that it provides an extra argument in which the caller can specify how the document is to be saved.

The SaveFlags argument should be a combination of the following values.

Constant Value Description

visSaveAsRO

&H1

The document is saved as read-only.

visSaveAsWS

&H2
