Set Filename & Path for newmerge document

I have a document template which our database merges information in to using
merge fields and then it automatically puts the result in to a new document.

I want set the filename and path of the new document as a combination of 3
fields: G:\Saved Quotes\<<Number>><<Sequence>>, <<Surname>>

Any ideas? Any code that I had on the template does not seem to carry
through to the new merge document!

Take a look at the addin that you can download from the following page of
fellow MVP Graham Mayor's website at:

A modification to the code in the add-in should do what you want.

It sounds really complicated! The user can just choose the filename!
