msb Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Hello, I use a program (Autohotkey) to modify words in a Microsoft Word document. So maybe Product1 in the text will be changed to Super2000 or something. Word is then saved and closed. The problem is that I can't seem to modify anything in the header or footer. So I am wondering if I can use some kind reference field or the like to refer back to the changed word. If Product1 is shown in the header, and if Product1 is changed to Super2000, then "Super2000" would now also be shown in the header. Is that possible to do in any way? Any other workaround suggestions? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaclaz Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 It may depend on the exact Word (office) version, but there shuld be no problems with Autohotkey to replicate the key combos that "switch" between "corpus", header and footer. Or you could use a Word macro or keyboard shortcut, see: http://windowssecrets.com/forums/showthread.php/43955-Keyboard-shortcut-for-switch-headers-footers-(Win2K-Word-2000-9-0-6926-SP3) https://cybertext.wordpress.com/2008/01/25/update-fields-in-headers-and-footers/ http://www.techrepublic.com/article/take-a-shortcut-to-your-header-window-in-word/ jaclaz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
