ActiveWindow.View.ShowFieldCodes = False ' Close the footer and return to document. ActiveWindow.ActivePane.View.SeekView = wdSeekMainDocument End SubThe If field determines whether the current page equals the number of pages in the document. This field is present in the header or footer on every page in the document. However, the file name will be printed only on the final page of the document. These steps can be used with any field (that is, you can substitute another field code for the file name if you want different results to print, such as the date).
