How do I get path/filename to auto update in footers in Word?
I want the footer to list the path and file name, but I want to set it so
that if I move the document to a new "path" or change the file name, the footer will automatically update with the new information. Is it possible to do this, or am I out of luck? |

There are no settings for this. It takes a macro.
http://gregmaxey.mvps.org/File_Name_And_Path.htm Note, this still will not change it if you move the file from outside Word. Note, though, that a Print Preview will usually update footer fields. -- Charles Kenyon Word New User FAQ & Web Directory: http://addbalance.com/word Intermediate User's Guide to Microsoft Word (supplemented version of Microsoft's Legal Users' Guide) http://addbalance.com/usersguide See also the MVP FAQ: http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/ which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
