Hi macropod,

Thanks for the info all working now! I also added a popup box prompting the user to add the project code to the filename prior to saving.

One issue I have now is that I have created a template on the server and other documents reference this template. Thats fine if you are connected to the server but if not the document takes forever to open in Word as it searches in vain for the template. Is there a way to quickly check for a server connection and if not present replace the attached template with local normal.dotx?

Im curious how people get around this, or do they simply not attach templates if the documents will be opened outside of the office environment?

Cheers.
