Message: [QUOTE="Musawwir Spiegel, post: 5689208"] Thank you Jay for your elegant solution to this problem. I am still in the process of learning VBA [having pretty much mastered WordBasic years ago], so it is of great help to me to have your code for this. I don't understand why Microsoft would have elimitated the setting by which one could decide whether to have this feature. But then I can't really understand why they replaced the menu choices with the [to me] very confusing Ribbon feature either. Could you please address the second part of my question, which also dealt with the saving of document properties: "Also, when one does access the properties via the Prepare option, when the properties appear above the document there are text boxes to enter such things as the title (for web purposes), subject, comments, etc. However, if you enter text into those text boxes they are not preserved. The only way to preserve them appears to be via clicking on the 'advanced properties' dropdown and then the 'summary' tab in the advanced properties and enter your information there. This appears to me to be a stupid bug in Word 2007. Am I missing something here?" Musawwir [/QUOTE]
