In other WordTips you have learned that Word allows you to maintain summary information for your documents along with the properties it automatically maintains. You have even learned how to print out that information by using the Print What drop-down list in the Print dialog box (Word 2007) or by using the controls on the printing page (Word 2010 or later versions).
At some point you may need to print the summary information from within a macro. In order to do so, you use the PrintOut method, as follows:
ActiveDocument.PrintOut Item:=wdPrintProperties
