Word 2003 BuiltIn Document Properties Dialog Box

[jim]

Can someone tell me how to show the builtin document properties dialog box
from vba, or how do I make sure that the document properties are updated as I
am trying to use the stored "Title Property" in the SaveAs Dialog Box
"FileName Value"
on save which is not happening.
Custom Form using 4 different different values to create the Title Property.

cmdOK

should pass the String to the BuiltIn Document Property "Title"

and then on Save it should be used as the FileName value this only happens
if I manually go to File - Properties and display it that way its there and
then when I save it appears in the FileName value.

Any help would be great.

It would be helpful to have a sample of the code you are using so we
know what you've tried.

Although what you want to do is a bit tricky so here's an article that
should help you out:

Also, should you have future Word VBA questions your best bet would be
to post in one of the Word VBA newsgroups since that's where the VBA
gurus tend to hang out. Around here you just gotta hope someone who
knows the answer you are looking for reads your post.

Please post all follow-up questions to the newsgroup. Requests for
assistance by email can not be acknowledged.
