Great lesson. I've spent hours on doc properties without much joy. At the start of document I want to have a document property, ie TT that has a dropdown box with 3 options. When an option is selected I want that option to update every instance of TT in the document including the header, footer etc. Is this actually possible and if so how do I do it?

@ITsEasyTraining1st 2 года назад

Glad it was helpful!, I am not sure about the list option. Try it

@PF-S 2 года назад

@@ITsEasyTraining1st I have tried everything and can't get it to work. Is this actually possible to do this? and if it is would you let me know how. If it's a training module that's fine, I just need to know how to get it to work.

Very helpful video! thanks very much for making this. I have added a couple of custom document properties for my template report however they don't seem to behave like the ones that are in the quick parts/ document properties menu. Is there a way of doing this or do i have to just accept that my linked text boxes have weird names?

@ITsEasyTraining1st Год назад

Not that I know

@Seanvstherobots Год назад

@@ITsEasyTraining1st I figured it out. You can edit the properties of your document properties using Design Mode in Developer Tools. You can also colour code your repeating text which is nice.

Hi. Its possible to save document properties in a external file and have it replicated in several word files?

@ITsEasyTraining1st Год назад

you can save it in a template and do that

@danielhvf Год назад

@@ITsEasyTraining1st it's trickier. And I didn't explained myself. The issue is: I have a internal process for which I have several (different) documents. Every time a new process begins it has a different number, title, manager, budget, department, begging date and deadline (and much more info). I need a way (like an external file) that I fill with this particular data that each word document will "drink" from... (Ps sorry for my bad English, hope you understand my issue)

@ravencannin4513 2 года назад

I can put the doc properties in, but I cannot get it to update like in your video if I type in text. For example, if one of my properties is machine number and I changed that machine number in one instance in the document, the rest do not update like it shows in the video. You have to manually update each instance?

@ITsEasyTraining1st 2 года назад

Did you try the F9 key, to update fields

@IrisMargaretL 3 года назад

Is this possible on Word for Mac?

@ITsEasyTraining1st 3 года назад

I don't know but a lot of Word's normal functionality is not available on a Mac, you would have to try

@wiramahesa3187 2 года назад

Hello, how to edit the properties permanently? Or how to change company name? When i change on the current document, the new document still with the old company name. I want to change it permanently

@ITsEasyTraining1st 2 года назад

You could try and add the properties to the Normal template or create a template and use that
