Hi,
  I am using Automation for Word. Now I want to know the names of all the
temporary files which word creates using automation.

You can't. The VBA/automation  interface simply has no knowledge of those
names, nor should it -- what are you trying to do?

See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=211632 for a description of the types
of temporary files Word uses. You might be able to scan the disk for such
files, but you'll never know which files are associated with which documents.
