To all:

I have a word document that prints the following text at the botom of the
page...

"ERROR! Unknown document property name"

The error message is bold and at the bottom. There is no footer information
within this document and I am not sre what is cuasing the error.

Has anyone seen this type of error before?
Thanks in advance,

Press Alt+F9 to see the DocProperty field, which is calling for information
that does not exist in the document Properties.

If you press Alt-F9 you will see field codes. You have a DocProperty field
looking for a document property which does not exist. The field may be in a
footer or in the document itself.

If it is at the bottom of every page, then it is probably in the Footer.
