Saving word file based on first line of text

[Vadim S.]

I am also having very similar issue, I am dividing a large word document by sections and saving each section individually as a pdf file. I need to compile the name for the PDF using the first line of the section. The code I have so far is this:

Sub BreakOnSection()
    ' Used to set criteria for moving through the document by section.
    Application.Browser.Target = wdBrowseSection
    'A mailmerge documents ends with a section break next page.
    'Subtracting one from the section count stop error message.
    For i = 1 To ((ActiveDocument.Sections.Count) - 1)
        'Select and copy the section text to the clipboard
        ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("\Section").Range.Copy
        'Create a new document to paste text from clipboard.
        Documents.Add
        Selection.Paste
        ' Removes the break that is copied at the end of the section, if any.
        Selection.MoveUp Unit:=wdLine, Count:=1, Extend:=wdExtend
        Selection.Delete Unit:=wdCharacter, Count:=1
        ChangeFileOpenDirectory "C:\Documents and Settings\vadim\My Documents\INVAR Technologies\Clients\Gventer"
        DocNum = DocNum + 1
        ActiveDocument.ExportAsFixedFormat OutputFileName:= _
        FirstPara & DocNum & ".pdf", ExportFormat:= _
        wdExportFormatPDF, OpenAfterExport:=False, OptimizeFor:= _
        wdExportOptimizeForPrint, Range:=wdExportAllDocument, FROM:=1, To:=1, _
        Item:=wdExportDocumentContent, IncludeDocProps:=True, KeepIRM:=True, _
        CreateBookmarks:=wdExportCreateNoBookmarks, DocStructureTags:=True, _
        BitmapMissingFonts:=True, UseISO19005_1:=False
        ActiveDocument.Close SaveChanges:=False
        ' Move the selection to the next section in the document
        Application.Browser.Next
    Next i
    ActiveDocument.Close SaveChanges:=wdDoNotSaveChanges
End Sub

The header of each section in the big document look like this:
"Note for Sofia Kogan on 5/10/2010"

How can I make that into a file name? The date format will probably have to be restructured as file names in windows can't have "/".

Any help would be greatly appreciate it.
