Automatically name document

[A_Classic_Man]

I have a Word form with a date field. I would like the date entered in
the field to show as the name of the form when the form is emailed as
an attachment and/or saved. How is this accomplished?

Thanks in advance

Ron

You may want to ask in a programming newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.word.vba.general for assistance with this. At least the
second task should be possible with a macro.

With ActiveDocument
.SaveAs .Formfields("dateformfield").Result
End With
