Word 2010: How to reference custom document properties?
Using Word 2010, I've added a custom property to my document, Something
, and I've set the value to XYZ
. In the document, I hit Ctrl+F9 to insert a reference, and I type { DOCPROPERTY [Something] }
. When I go to print preview, the page is blank, and returning to my document, I find my reference is now gone.
What is the proper way to insert a reference to a document property?
Solution 1:
Try it without the square brackets, i.e.
{ DOCPROPERTY Something }
Press F9 after you type the field name, and it should update correctly to your field value.
