File Save Macro

[JeanneJo]

I need to create a macro to save files in the following format:

2006.11.21_[Atty Initials]_[Brief Document Title]_[Brief Descriptor].doc

The documents will be created from a variety of templates which are used by
all users in the Firm; however, this naming convention applies to one
shareholder and the associates/paralegals who work on his cases.

The types of documents are letterhead, fax cover sheets, two types of court
paper and just plain documents with no particular template assigned.

I would like the date to be the current date, in the format set out above;
the users can fill in the rest of the information - I'm not interested in
picking up information from within the document itself - I prefer the user
complete the "fields" themselves to keep the length of the file under control.

As I have created only the simplest of macros in Word, I'm going to require
a little help to make this happen. Any suggestions?

Not sure if allowed to mention products & apologise in advance if it offends
anybody - in which case let me know & I will never, never, ever do it again.
If you are in UK, you might like to look at www.iosl.co.uk - who have a
product which works in this way.
