  Sub NewsLetterSave()
Dim strFileName As String

' Assign the explicit file name to a variable.
strFileName = "<em>Filename</em>"
Publisher.<strong class="bterm">ActiveDocument</strong>.SaveAs strFileName

' Insert the file name and supporting text after selected text.
Selection.TextRange.Collapse pbCollapseEnd
Selection.TextRange = _
    " This publication has been saved as " &amp; strFileName

End Sub
