OR.... is there any software that converts from Word to mobi/prc that uses the filename rather than the title property?

Thanks

Yes if you know how to script in PERL. You can download an ActivePerl (free) it has a COM plugin in that allows

In windows 2000 and later you can use a tool called cscript, it's an interpreter that allows you to run code written in VBScript(basic) or JScript (javaScript)

To see how the Name/Author are set in VBA(basic) take a look at the source in the tool I wrote BookCreator
