[GGleason]

Is there a way to set a field to display the contents of an environment variable in Word?

Insert> Field has lots choices 4 document environment variables. u want OS environment variables - like PATH etc.? if so u can pick them up with ENVIRON("variableName") through VBA.

I am familiar with VBA in Access and Excel, but not so much in Word. So I have no clue how to do this.

I have a sentence in Word that needs to have the path that is related to the users' login path. I've been able to echo out the environment variable I want within Word's VBA but I don't know how to apply it directly to that sentence.

Any help would be welcome.

Thanks,
