How can I determine the URL of a document?
My boss doesn't want emails, attachments, etc.; he just wants to know the
path of a document, and he'll review it there. How can I get it printed out w/o having to hand-type it in? I'm using Word 2003. |

How can I determine the URL of a document?
I do this often at work but there may be a better way than what I use. The
files in question are almost always files that I access often so I have shortcuts on my desktop. I right-click on them, select Properties, and then copy what's in the path and paste it into emails. Like I said, there may be better ways but it works for me. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "Lynn DeLaMare" Lynn wrote in message ...

How can I determine the URL of a document?
1. View Header and Footer, then switch to the footer
2. Insert Field 3. Scroll down the Field Names list and select FileName 4. Select the desired format (I like title case) 5. Check the "Add path to filename" box That will put the full path and file name at the bottom of each page of the document. I would also recommend adding the date and time that the file was last saved. To do that: 1. View Header and Footer, then switch to the footer 2. Type: Last Updated: a. Put one or two spaces after the colon 3. Insert Field 4. Scroll down the Field Names list and select DocProperty 5. Select LastSavedTime from the Property list Now, not only do you have the full path and file name, but you also know the last time the document was saved, and therefore how recent/outdated the information may be. I put these two fields at the bottom of every document that I create. In fact, I created a template that contains these two fields and all of my documents are based on that template. BTW, you can do this in Excel too. --Tom "Lynn DeLaMare" Lynn wrote in message ...
