Default Drawing Button With VBA To Rename File And Save

Is it possible to make a button that I draw with the mouse and assign it to a macro that can name the file based on a content control plain text box with the current date and time, also in the file name, then save it to a specific folder location? Could someone help me with the VBA to get this done? The plain text box will have a name so the file name would look something like this for example:

Smith,John_10-13-2022_102036.docm

The content control plain text box will have "John Smith" then date will pull from the computer and "102036" is the current time the file is saved which represents 10:20:36PM since I don't think colons are accepted in a file name.

I have been able to do this with Excel but I am not familiar with Word as I am very much a beginner in Word.



Thanks for the help.
