Can you describe how you want the custom footer to be used? Which version of Office does your organization have? And does it install Office via the network?

I'd like the custom footer available as a Quick Part and as a footer so that users can insert into docs.

I know it can be done, but I don't know the details of "how". The best place to pursue this would be the office.setup newsgroup. Look especially for Beth Melton, as she has some experience with this. The Office ORK would be a good reference source, as well. > > > I have created a custom footer and would like to share with others in my > > > organization. Can I?

Re: How can I share a custom footer in Word 2007 with others in my gr8auntieokie 12/18/2008 6:08:01 PM Cindy, in our office, I can save any style in a Quick Style Set that everyone in the firm will use as a base for formatting their documents. Then I copy the Quick Style Set from my hard drive to our network. From there, anyone in the firm can copy it to their own hard drive and select it as a default Quick Style Set. (In fact, we do this a lot in an effort to offer styles to our attorneys that they don't have to create themselves.) OR you can save it in a document or template and e-mail it to others, letting them open and save the styles in the document or template as a Quick Style Set on their own hard drives. (One of our IT gurus even wrote a program that, when run, automatically updates the network styles---including Quick Style Sets---to each user's hard drive.... but I don't know how to do that, so saving a document/template with the styles in it or e-mailing the document/template to someone else so they can open the doc and save the styles, will work just as well.
