The following example creates a new document from an existing .TIF file and saves the new document as an .MDI file, using medium compression (the default).

Sub TestSaveAs()
  
  Dim miDoc As MODI.Document
  
  Set miDoc = New MODI.Document
  miDoc.Create "C:\document1.tif"

  miDoc.SaveAs "C:\document1.mdi", miFILE_FORMAT_MDI
  
  Set miDoc = Nothing

End Sub
