Hi,

In excel, after we add the filepath to the footer, whenever we move
the file
into different location, the filepath will update itself. But in
Word, the
filepath just stay the same, and I have to manually update the
filepath. Is
there a way to make it update itself automatically?

Thanks

Adrian
