Hi there,

I have a purchase order form template and the order number is entered
manually into a field. The order number is generated within the company and
cannot be automatic once the template is fired. Once the form is filled in i
wish the user to print to PDF. Is it possible to change the default file name
of "document 1" to "Purchase Order_(number in form field)" using macros.

Thanks and regards

Steve

Yes, that is possible (at least for the naming of the _Word_ document:
