Reference a Document with an Updating Name
Hello,
I have a report that I complete everyday and I pull information from two other reports. I know how to set up my report so that it automatically pulls the information I need from the other 2 reports. My problem is that the naming protocol where I work is when you update a document you have to save it with that day's date (i.e. if today I update the report for how many applications were processed, I would have to save it as "Processed Applications 2.3.17"). Is it possible to tell my report to pull the information from the document no matter what the numbers are? *by the way, once a document has been updated and saved with a new date, the old one is moved to an "Archive" folder. So there will always be only one document with that name in the folder.* Thanks in advance for the help, and let me know if you need more information or anything else. ~Chellebell1689 *EDIT* Also, my profile says MSO 2016, that's my personal copy. At work we have MSO 2013. Same with the OS, 10 is my personal computer, my work computer is 7. Last edited by Chellebell1689; 02-03-2017 at 06:25 AM. Reason: Correction |
