field code: lastsavedby
I'm using two lastsavedby field codes: one in my footer and one in the body
of the text. I want both to automatically update upon saving the file, not printing the doc. I note that the lastsavedby fields behave differently. The one in the footer updates when I print (or print preview) the doc. However, the lastsavedby field in the body doesn't update until I manually update it (by pressing F9 or right-clicking the field and selecting Update Field). Can anybody help make the the lastsavedby field update automically upon saving the doc? |

Hi ?B?S2ltbWllIEI=?=,
I'm using two lastsavedby field codes: one in my footer and one in the body of the text. I want both to automatically update upon saving the file, not printing the doc. I note that the lastsavedby fields behave differently. The one in the footer updates when I print (or print preview) the doc. However, the lastsavedby field in the body doesn't update until I manually update it (by pressing F9 or right-clicking the field and selecting Update Field). Can anybody help make the the lastsavedby field update automically upon saving the doc? You'd need to use a macro, one named FileSave, to force the field updates. Example: Sub FileSave() ActiveDocument.Fields.Update ActiveDocument.Save End Sub There used to be a KB article explaining why and how this worked, but it looks as if it's been withdrawn...
