You need to insert it prior to assigning your filename. Eg

MyRes.MoveFirst

CommonDialog1.InitDir = "C:\MyStartFolder"
CommonDialog1.Filter = "CSV Files (*.csv)|*.csv|All Files (*.*)|*.*"
CommonDialog1.ShowSave

strCsvFile = CommonDialog1.FileName

fHndl = FreeFile

You should include a check that the file name returned is valid.
