#CUSTOM UPDATING DOCUMENT PROPERTIES WORD 2016 ABSTRACT UPDATE#

I think, like the OP, I am looking for a way to add Quick Part Document Properties in a way that allows direct editing from the document itself without needing to go through all the dialog boxes associated with changing the value of a document field.

#CUSTOM UPDATING DOCUMENT PROPERTIES WORD 2016 ABSTRACT UPDATE#

If you want to just update a single field, select it and press F9. Note that this will update the Table of Contents, links, etc.

Press F9 up update all the fields selected.

To update all the fields in the document (at once):

From the Properties table (at the bottom) select a property.

From the Property list select the property you created.

From the Field Name list select DocProperty.

Move to the place where you want to insert the property.

To add a field to the document using the property:

Click Document Properties and select Advanced Properties.

Click Office Button > Prepare > Properties.

To insert other types of document properties into your document, select Document Information from the Categories drop-down list on the Field dialog box and select a property such as Author, FileName, Title, etc. You can also insert other date and time information from the document properties into your document using fields, such as CreateDate and EditTime. NOTE: The SaveDate (or Last Modified date) field you inserted will automatically update each time you open the file. The field updates to the date (and time, if applicable, depending on the chosen date format) the file was last saved. To manually update the field, right-click anywhere on the field and select Update Field from the popup menu. When you save the file, the field does not automatically update. If you put the cursor anywhere in the date, you will notice that the date has a gray background. The Last Modified date is inserted into your document. Select SaveDate in the Field names list and select a desired format for the date in the Date formats list in the Field properties box. Select Date and Time from the Categories drop-down list. If you are using Word 2003, select Field from the Insert menu.

In the Text section of the Insert tab, click the Quick Parts button and select Field from the drop-down menu. In Word, to insert the date the currently open document was last saved, or modified, click the Insert tab. Insert the Last Modified Date into a Word Document The Properties dialog box displays and is the same as it is in Word 2010 and Word 2007. To view properties for an open document in Word 2003, select Properties from the File menu. The Properties dialog box is the same as it is in Word 2010. To access the Properties dialog box, click the Document Properties button, just like you did in Word 2010, and select Advanced Properties. The Document Properties panel displays at the top of the document. Select Prepare | Properties from the Office menu. To view properties for an open document in Word 2007, click the Office button. When you have finished viewing the document properties, click OK if you have made changes you want to save, or click Cancel to close the Properties dialog box without saving changes.

You can also change some properties on the Summary tab. Click OK or Cancel to close the dialog box. You can view various tabs showing different information about the document, including the Created, Modified, Accessed, and Printed (if applicable) dates, and the Statistics about the document, such as the number of words and characters in the document. NOTE: You can also select Advanced Properties from the drop-down menu on the Properties button on the File tab mentioned above.

To do this, click the Document Properties button in the top, left corner of the panel and select Advanced Properties from the drop-down menu. From this panel, you can also access a dialog box displaying all the properties stored for the document. In newer versions of Word, the document panel has been removed, so you can only view advanced properties. To do this, click the Properties button and select Show Document Panel from the drop-down menu. You can also show the document properties in a panel at the top of your document.
