Documenter - Display Object Name

Anonymous

When I run Documenter, the report does not display the table, query or report name.  There is a GUID field but that does not mean much to me in determining the object name.  How do I determine the name for each object in the Documenter report?

Thank you,

Gary

    Apparently the path was too long for Documenter. I moved the file to another location and got the object name on the third row of thr header.  Both paths covered two lines of the header but Documenter liked the shorter path and gave me the object name on the third line.  Bizarrre.

    I have the Office 365 subscription do it’s their latest and greatest. 

    I don’t see the Table line that you get. Just the path and file name.

    What version of Access do you have? I ran the documenter in 2010 and 2016. This is what I get:

    Scott, thanks, but the header I get is just the location of the Access file and name -- no object name.  I selected all object types, and for options, I selected every option, but no object name.  Is the file header option hidden somewhere else?

    Thanks,

    Gary

    When you select to use the Documenter you have several options as to what will appear on the report. The object name is in the page header.
