word 07 won't change the open file to the name I just "saved as"

[rgw1085]

I am new to WOrd 07, but am familiar with 97. If I open a file in and old
format and then save it using "save as" and even save it to the new format,
why doesn't it change the name of the file I am working on to the new file
name? I also get a second word window with the original file opened.

Part of the "Save as" is to change the name. You must do this yourself as no
one else has the foggiest notion what your desire.

Change the name of the file where? If you mean that contained in a filename
field, then note that filename fields do not update automatically. You will
need to force an update - the simplest method is to add an update macro to
the QAT (Quick Access Toolbar) - the sample code at
http://www.gmayor.com/installing_macro.htm should do the job.

I didn't think that was possible - however, I think I'll wait to see what
the OP has to say before commenting further.
