I understand that u can enter file paths as a footer each time. But can you
do this automatically so that when you save a document to a folder the file paths is automatically inputted. |

If you add the filepath to your Normal.dot, however, it will also be there
if you use Tools | Labels. On mine, it pushes the last line of labels to the next page. Though Word really ought to be smarter than this, it also shows up when you use Tools | Envelopes. At least in my version.

Thanks, Daiya. I'll put that warning on my article. I don't use most of
these features, so I understand them in theory, I don't see them in practice. ******************* ~Anne Troy www.OfficeArticles.com www.MyExpertsOnline.com "Daiya Mitchell" wrote in message .. .

No problem, Anne. I just read that somewhere here.
The original poster might want to also look here--it links some suggestions for the "I want default text" question towards the bottom. http://word.mvps.org/faqs/customizat...alTemplate.htm On 7/7/05 11:59 AM, "Anne Troy" wrote: Thanks, Daiya.

You can create a template with this in the footer and create your new
documents from that template. However, you should not do this with normal.dot.

Please post replies and questions to the newsgroup so that others can learn from my ignorance and your wisdom. "bigyininlarky" wrote in message ...
