date stamp changes
I'm running Word 2003...
Now that I've finally got my manuals the way I want them, I will be posting them to our network where other employees will have access to make changes. (I've turned tracking on.) However, these changes must then be sent (either electronically or hard copy) to an outside company. How can I 'date' stamp the changes (at the bottom of the page) so that as pages are sent outside, they will know which one is the most current version? I've currently created a small text box with "Revised: May XX, 2006" and inserting it on each page. This isn't difficult, but will become time consuming as there are MANY manuals. I've looked all thru the "insert date", and other time stamping but can't find this particular issue. Thanks.... Barb |

date stamp changes
Hi Barb,
The nearest you'll get to this is Word's 'SAVEDATE' field which, as its name suggests, displays the date (and time with the right switches) the document was last saved. If you put a 'SAVEDATE' field (or the text box you're using now) in the header or footer, it will show up on every page that uses the same header/footer, without having to insert it on every page.
