Default Changing footer image in Multiple word documents

Hi,

I am currently in the process of converting files into word documents and i have hundreds of these documents.

The signatures in the footer of these documents have changed. Currently i am having to go in, one by one, and delete the old footer and then paste in the new footer.

the footer consists of text and an image of signatures.

I am just wondering if there is a quicker way of doing this, like having a style-sheet as a template footer? and then somehow the word documents apply that 1 sheet-sheet to all the documents? ...is this possible?

Any ideas how i can do this?


Thanks

Questions similar to this have been asked many times. It is possible to create a macro to open all the docs and update the footers and this is probably the best way to achieve what you are trying to do.

Have you done a search on key words such as "batch files footer"

I wasn't too sure on the "keyword" to search for but "batch files footer" got to find what i wanted.

Think i have managed to get it to work also!

THANK YOU!
