Default need to change "saved filename" in normal.dot

When I go to save a new document in Word the default save name is now
"November 04". I need to change it back to something less descriptive.

Let me know if you have any suggstions.

Default

Open Normal.dot (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/AppErrors/...ocNotBlank.htm for instructions)
and then go to File | Properties and delete the Title property. But if the
first thing in any given document is a date, then it will be suggested as
the filename unless you have already populated the Title property.
