I need to save a file as "microsoft word.doc", for a computer class, and I
can't seem to find a way for the .doc to show up in the title bar like the
instructor wants, does anyone have any ideas?
thanks

Save it as "microsoft word.doc.doc" and you'll end up with the title
"microsoft word.doc". The extension ".doc" will be hidden as usual.

In order for the extension to appear, you need to set Windows Explorer to
display the extensions of known file types.
If you want the filename to show in the window title bar, you need an
autoopen macro containing the line:

ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.Name
or if you want the path also
ActiveWindow.Caption = ActiveDocument.FullName
