Yup...she'll wanna use the Insert/Field/FILENAME field code. Check it =
for
options.

Here's the VBA code I use to do this. I have this macro on my menu so a
quick click adds the info to the doc. Here's an article she can read for
details to use this code:

Sub DocFile()
'by Dian, to add file info to doc footer

    If ActiveWindow.View.SplitSpecial <> wdPaneNone Then
        ActiveWindow.Panes(2).Close
    End If
    If ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type =3D wdNormalView Or =
ActiveWindow. _
        ActivePane.View.Type =3D wdOutlineView Then
        ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.Type =3D wdPrintView
    End If
    ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView =3D wdSeekCurrentPageHeader
    If Selection.HeaderFooter.IsHeader =3D True Then
        ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView =3D =
wdSeekCurrentPageFooter
    Else
        ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView =3D =
wdSeekCurrentPageHeader
    End If

Hello again!

I have someone here who wants to use a footer to tell anyone (who wants =
to
know) the location of a document. She says there is a way to put this in =
the
footer and then if the location changes, it will automatically update =
the
location.=20

Well, I haven't a clue. Is this possible? I'm not sure why she even =
wants
this...but if it's possible....let me know

Thanks!
