Word Command Button Question

Working on a uniform/equipment request form. I am trying to add a command button in a document template to save the file and then attach the file to an email. I would like to have the name of the document/file be saved as the user name and date so if more than one form is completed, they will be in different files. The document would then be emailed to the employee's supervisor for approval. The supervisor would open the form, enter their name and then click another command button which would save the file, updating the original file (if possible) and then attach the updated file to an email. I am close but the file will not automatically save after the approval because the first emailed file opens as read only. Am I trying to do the impossible?

Maybe on some stage you can use SaveCopyAs to save the current document as a copy, which is not read-only?
