Stamping documents with date & time
Hello,
I'm working on a system which saves documents in a particular way. If I am saving a document, I save it in the format YYYY-MM-DD XXXX so, for example, an invoice would be '2004-11-24 Invoice'. This is fine but it is time consuming & it allows errors to creep in. I would like to be albe to do something different & I wonder whether you might be able to help me. When I ant to save a document, I'd like to save it as a word document stamped with both date & time EG '2004-11-24 16.24 Invoice', to print a copy & to save an image file by printing & saving it to the Microsoft Office Document Image Writer. Can anybody tell me how I might to this or whether there is a macro available to do something like this for me? Thanks Sam |

This has been addressed a number of times in the word.vba.beginners
newsgroup. You may want to Google that group for the word date in the subject line. It does take VBA but can be done. -- 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://www.mvps.org/word which is awesome! --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- This message is posted to a newsgroup.
