Default Save As - automatic fillin of new filename

Hello,

Is there any way to prevent Word from taking the first line in a document
and using it as the new filename? I know you can just type over it but we
would like to see a blank filename when we choose Save As. Thanks for the
help.

Default Save As - automatic fillin of new filename

At least through Word 2003, Word will suggest whatever is in the Title field
of the document properties as the filename (only if the Title field is empty
do you get the first bit of text). You might try typing a single space
there.
