Word 2007. Word takes the first few words in a document and automatically
inserts it into the filename entry-box (in the Save dialog box). I like this
feature because I usually use the document’s first line as the title for the
document, and I like having the filename the same as the title. However, this
does not happen with documents created from templates that I have created.
When Word creates these documents it inserts the template’s name into the
filename entry box instead of the document’s first line. I must then delete
it and type the name that I want. Is it possible to make user template
documents insert the first line of the document into the filename entry box?
 
If there is text in the Title property of the template, it will be suggested
for the filename. Open the template for editing and clear the Title field in
File | Properties.
