I have a button in a word document that prompts the user to save the document
after they've completed it. Can anyone tell me the code to get this button to
save the document to their desktop?

MsgBox "Remember to save this document to your computer when done."

Try not using ActiveX at all. You can float a toolbar that has a button for
your macro.

Better yet, would be an on-entry macro for your last field that pops up a
message box with your reminder.
