Save As Feature and Document Properties

[Charlotte]

In my previous version of Word, when I was renaming a
document with another name my default to be prompted for
the document properties worked. In Office 2003 this does
not work, it only works when you are saving an brand new
document. How can I get the prompt for document
properties to work using the "save as"?

Hi Charlotte,

Which was your previous version of Word? I just tested in
Word 2002 and it's the same as 2003...

Probably, you'd need to use a macro.

I think Word 97 was also the same (don't know about 2000).
