Default File naming conventions


I received an excel worksheet. It's named "fileA 24Aug2005.xls". When i
open it up on my mac in excel, the date truncates to something like
"fileA #17D114.xls. This wouldn't be a problem, except that when i
print their file from my computer, the new name, prints at the bottom
of the worksheet which won't fly because the new name printed wouldn't
match their database.

2 questions.

1) where is this file name stored and where is the command that tells
it to print at the bottom, because i don't see it on my screen, only
the printed copy.

2) how can i open a file without changing the system changing the
name?

very grateful for any insight.

Mary
