Is there a way to insert an email hyperlink in word so that when I click on the hyperlink, the subject line of the email is the file name of the word document?

Change the subject line for the file name

^ I knew that, I meant I wan't it done automatically, so I don't have to enter it manually. For example, there is a way to have a header/footer update itself with the file name. I want to be able to to the same for the subject line.

Yeah, write a VBA script in the word doc.

Is this so you can use word to make a form to distribute a form as a .docx, because eww at that

^ Nope it is just for sending emails to clients. Would make my job a bit easier.
^^ I was trying to avoid that cos I have no idea how to do that. I was hoping to type some sort of command in the subject line box (inside edit hyperlink) that would pick up the file name

That's called VBA.

To ease it in, record a macro of yourself adding something or other into the title, then edit the VBA in the Developer menu, at the line that has what you added; some quality time with Microsoft Office Help should let you figure out what to change that line to so you add the filename of the document.
