Macropod,

Thanks! That macro works great. I'm curious though, (1.)how can I manipulate it to include more than one line of text and various spacing? (2.)Or is it possible for me to create a custom header in a document(headertemplate.docx) that can be referenced when the script runs and implement it into the documents in the selected folder?

(1.) For example, my header looks like this:
Code:
 
Project Location                                              Date
Project Name                                           Drawing Set
Contract Number                                      Issuance Date
When I run the script, inputting March 1, 2018 it appears as this:
Code:
 
Project Location                                              Date
Project Name                                           Drawing Set
Contract Number                                      Issuance Date
March 1, 2018
Often times I need to change the Issuance Date and Drawing Set throughout the duration of the project. Other times I need to only change the Issuance Date. This would be were (2.) could come in handy. If I can make adjustments in one file then extrapolate it to all the files in my selected folder, I could make whatever changes needed instead of piece-mealing certain parts and then having to deal with formatting, style, font etc.

I'll do some research into other scripts on how to read a "template" file and try to put something together.

Thank you for spending the time helping me!
