MS Word yyyy-mm-dd.doc filename to Mmmmmm dd, yyyy in document - automagically

Microsoft Word 2000.  I would like to have a .DOT (document template)
defined so that the name of the file, which is in the format of
yyyy-mm-dd.DOC, is converted to "Mmmmmmm dd, yyyy" somewhere in the
document.  All I should have to do is Save As 2004-08-20.doc and this is
converted to "August 20, 2004" in the document automagically.

Is this possible?  Macro?  An insert field I missed?

Is there a good online resource for this type of question?  Besides this
list, of course!  ;-)
