How make a field for filling in docproperty Title
I am using word 2002. I would like to have a field in my doc that says "Insert document title here". When the user Inserts the title it would go to docproperty title (that is the one when you click File-Properties and you choose Summary tab). Some sources claim this would work: { TITLE " {FILLIN "Insert..."} " } { TITLE {FILLIN "Insert..."} } {INFO Title {FILLIN "Insert..."} } They don't work for me . I been figthing with it for hours If you have a documet that this works in please send a copy (or stripped down copy) to my email address. |

How make a field for filling in docproperty Title
You are going to need to use a macro to assign a value to a
BuiltinDocumentProperty other than by the use of the FileProperties dialog If you were using a formfield in a protected document, you could use ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties(wdPropert yTitle)=ActiveDocument.For mFields("BMName").Result where BMName is the bookmark assigned to the formfield. Or with a userform containing a textbox with the name txtTitle ActiveDocument.BuiltInDocumentProperties(wdPropert yTitle) = txtTitle.Text -- Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested. Unsolicited questions forwarded directly to me will only be answered on a paid consulting basis. Hope this helps Doug Robbins - Word MVP "Otto Brandt" wrote in message ... I am using word 2002.
