How to Insert the Company Property in Word

Insert the Company document property in Word’s body, header, or footer, and check the metadata if it appears blank or incorrect.

In desktop Word, place the cursor where the company name should appear, then choose Document Info > Document Property > Company in a header or footer. In the document body, use Insert > Quick Parts > Document Property > Company. The inserted value comes from the document’s Company metadata.

Insert Company in a header or footer

  1. Open the header or footer by double-clicking it, or choose Insert > Header or Insert > Footer and select an option to edit that area.

  3. Choose Document Info > Document Property > Company.

  4. Close Header and Footer or press Esc.

Microsoft documents this workflow for desktop Word. Word for the web does not support adding document properties to a header or footer, so use desktop Word for this task: Microsoft’s header and footer instructions.

Insert Company in the document body

  1. Place the cursor in the body where the company name should appear.

Check or change the Company value

Document Property menu versus a field code

Word also includes a DocProperty field code. For inserting the built-in Company value, the direct Document Property menu is the documented route: it offers Company as a selectable property and avoids having to choose a field type manually. Microsoft separately describes Insert > Quick Parts > Field for selecting field types in a header or footer. Use that dialog if you specifically need the field-code route; the Company property task itself is handled by the Document Property menu. See Microsoft’s field-code list.
