Prevent overwrite file

[bvdbos]

On Oooforum Villeroy gave a sample code to prevent overwriting documents by a macro. However, aren't the properties of StoreAsUrl meant for this:

Code: Select all

   Dim FileProperties(0) As New com.sun.star.beans.PropertyValue
FileProperties(0).Name = "Overwrite"
 FileProperties(0).Value = False
 oDoc2.StoreAsURL(ConvertToURL(bestand),FileProperties())

?

What's the difference, the latter doesn't seem to work?

I don't know what property "Overwrite" is meant for. Can you tell us what it does and why it does not seem to work? Whats wrong with my code, which justs test for existance and raises a MsgBox askin for what to do if file exists?
