Word97 – Can template generate filename?

by dwassum . Updated 25 years, 6 months ago

I am creating a Word97 template for a standard business form for my company. I need to put a field in the form which will generate an automatic ID number, which must be unique for each form created using the template, incremented by 1 for each new form. I must be able to define a starting point for the ID numbers. I also need to create a macro that will take that ID number, and upon the initial creation of a new document from the template, automatically save the file in a default directory using that unique ID number as the filename. Any ideas on how to do this?
