159285 2003-07-13 03:15:00 Hi- I'm running XP & I create several quotes in my work using Word. When I list these I want to print just the headings (ie Client name & date of quote)
How can I print this without the whole document printing?

If you open the document and highlight the section you want to print, then File - Print - Selection will only print the area of each document highlighted.

But I have a feeling you do not want to open the document at all, just print the list of filenames and dates?

159287 2003-07-13 07:21:00 Godfather-Yes just need to print a list of quotes for the month-that
is just the names & dates-not the whole document which I have a hard copy of anyway

159288 2003-07-13 14:36:00 I think you need to run a VBA(Macro) to do what you want. mikebartnz (21)
159289 2003-07-13 22:54:00 You seem to only need to print-out the directory listing from file explorer?

There should be third party solutions for this, freeware/shareware etc.

159290 2003-07-14 00:17:00 I think Datacadman has the names and quotes within a word doc, rather than a list of files . The first solution of just selecting what you want to print may be best .

Alternatively you could use a mail merge type scenario where the source data is in Excel and filtered to the name you want then merge to a document which is printed . Also a macro can do this but both these options seems a lot of work for something like this .
