Word Document Properties Updating

Hi

Is it possible to update the Word Document Properties using TBS? Just to clarify that is a field which is in the word document from "Quick Parts" "Document Properties". When you insert one of these fields, it appears in square brackets like this...

if you replace it with TBS code...


then the document properties field is set to "[onload.Company_Name]" and is not replaced with the contents of the TBS field. If you insert a content control object it works fine but not when it is a document properties field. I see there is a separate XML file called "docProps\app.xml" which contains the field so I guess this will need updating. I notice there is a separate function for headers and footers so will something similar be required for document properties?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Philip,

Some document properties are saved in the "docProps/core.xml" sub-file:
- title
- subject
- creator
- keywords
- description
- lastModifiedBy
- category
- contentStatus

And some other properties are saved in the "docProps/app.xml" sub-file:
- Manager
- Company
- HyperlinkBase

If you've placed an automatic TBS field ([onload] or [onshow]) then you just have to open the sub-file and the TBS field will be merge.

For exemple:

Simple (when you know how)! It works perfectly with either onshow or onload.

Thanks, much appreciated.
