We have created a series of templates with file names similar to:-
0000 FM-DM-049-o1 agenda.dot
as part of a compliance procedure.
The idea being the four zeros are changed to the relevant job number but the
rest stays the same ( except dot becomes .doc) when the document is created.
This works fine if we right click on the template and 'open with' WORD, and
then save as , and changing the four zeros the document is saved as
1234 FM-DM-049-o1 agenda.doc. BUT
IF we double click on the template or use filenew in word, when we 'save
as' all we get is
0000 FM.doc as the filename the rest as been removed.
We have also created similar filenames in Excel and that works perfectly
whichever way you open the template.

Any one got an idea
