Hello together, when I try to use the function SaveAs2 it fails at trying to create the file new. It only works at overriding an existing document.

I use following code:
ActiveDocument.SaveAs2 FileName:=GlobalPath + "\" + GlobalFile, FileFormat _ :=wdFormatXMLDocumentMacroEnabled, LockComments:=False, Password:="", _ AddToRecentFiles:=True, WritePassword:="", ReadOnlyRecommended:=False, _ EmbedTrueTypeFonts:=False, SaveNativePictureFormat:=False, SaveFormsData _ :=False, SaveAsAOCELetter:=False, CompatibilityMode:=wdWord2013

I use Word 2013.

Has anyone an idea why this happens?

Provided GlobalPath + "\" + GlobalFile returns a valid path & filename, you could be able to reduce the SaveAs2 command to:
ActiveDocument.SaveAs2 FileName:=GlobalPath + "\" + GlobalFile, FileFormat:=wdFormatXMLDocumentMacroEnabled, CompatibilityMode:=wdWord2013

Issue solved. I had a wrong code before this code, which tried to Access a non-existing file.
