Setting the default filename when saving Word documents

When I save a Word document the name used to default to the first few words
in the document ... a very useful feature. Now, it seems stuck on the
beginning of my street address ... like maybe from the envelope feature
return address?

How do I get back to the old default?
 
If the template on which your document is based has text in the Title
property, that will be suggested as the default filename. Open the template
as a document, clear the Title property, and resave.

hi,
I'm trying the same thing but... in the properties 'title property' of the
template file does not remain clear.
How can I stop this property (of the template file) constantly being
populated... I want it to remain empty. Also, setting read-only doesn't help
thanks
