Ahh.. Macro. Very cool, it works!
One more question... I tried to setup the "SaveAs" fuction as well and did
not find the correct syntax, can you look at this and correct my mistake?
Thanks again
Sub FileSave()
'
' FileSave Macro
' Saves the active document or template
'
With ActiveDocument
.SaveAs .FormFields("Company_Name").Result
End With
End Sub
Sub FileSaveAs()
'
' FileSaveAs Macro
' Saves a copy of the document in a separate file
'
With ActiveDocument
Dialogs .SaveAs.FormFields("Company_Name").Result
End With
End Sub

It needs to be located in the template from which you are creating the
document.

Looks like this will do it.... but I'm not sure where this statement needs
to
be placed. anywhere on the document? How do I get in the "mode" to enter
the statement, IE. Insert field?
Thanks for you help, and baby stepping me through

I would like to have the file save as one of my bookmarks when I save
the
file for the first time. Usually the default is the first several
words
at
the beginning of the document, but I would like to have it default to
one
of
the form fields I have the users type in. Is that possible?
Thanks
