If the information appears anywhere on the page, you can use a StyleRef
field to insert it in the header/footer; see

I am a novice to StyleRef. Need time to figure out your suggestion, however I
discover form fields created in document body can be inserted as bookmark in
the header, but raised another problem which I posted "bookmark in header".

For the same doc I am working on , I have a version#/date in the footer
which are not form fields or data. Is there a way to lock plain text in the
footer other than applying StyleRef?
