Different footer on each page

A

Art

Hi,

I'd like to be able to put a revision date on the bottom of any page that I
change. It seems like a footer is the right place for it. However this
would force me to put each page in its own section - I think. I can put the
date in manually, but I don't want it to propogate to other pages.

Is there any sensible way to do this?

Hi =?Utf-8?B?QXJ0?=,

Place a frame (from the Forms toolbar) or a textbox at the bottom of each page.
Make sure it's anchored to some paragraph more or less in the middle of the
page, so that it doesn't slip as quickly to another page when you're editing
larger blocks of text.

Cindy,

I think I would fix a frame vertically and horizontally relative to
page and create and AutoText entry. This way you could repeat it
accurately on each page. Or at least I think this works based on very
limited testing.

Cindy,

Thanks for the suggestion. Actually, though, in reading your suggestion I
realized that there is the potential for real problems in what I was
planning. Actually I'm doing this on behalf of a user in my company -- I'll
check and see if she's open to dating entire sections rather than individual
pages.

Thanks again, your suggestion helped put this in perspective.

Hi Art,

Yep :) I was hoping you'd notice that. Something like this can work if
it's one person, who knows the dangers. But on a large scale...
