Document Title and location

[Colin]

Hi all,

How can I have Word 2007 automatically show the file name and it's location
as a footnote on all documents ? Many thanks.

Regards Colin.

The most reliable method is probably to use a macro eg

Sub InsertFilenameInFooter()
Dim iSec As Integer
Dim rFooter As Range
With ActiveDocument
If Len(.Path) = 0 Then .Save
iSec = .Sections.Count
Set rFooter = .Sections(iSec).Footers(wdHeaderFooterPrimary).Range
rFooter.InsertAfter vbCr & .FullName
With rFooter.Paragraphs(rFooter.Paragraphs.Count)
.Alignment = wdAlignParagraphRight
With .Range
.Font.name = "Arial"
.Font.Size = 8
End With
End With
End With
End Sub

Hi Graham,

Thans for the speedy reply. I've never used VB before so although it looks a
little daunting, I'll give it a try. Thanks for your help.

Regards Colin.
