See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/TblsFldsFms/DateFields.htm for help in
constructing a field to your requirements. You'll doubtless need a
concatenation of several fields, and, as Margaret pointed out, your
abbreviation for the day of the week is not supported by Word. When you have
arrived at a string of fields that works, you can save it as an AutoText
entry. Note that you probably don't want a Date field but more likely
CreateDate.

Note that the Date and Time fields by default use the default short or long
date format you have defined in Windows Control Panel | Regional Options.

Graham Mayor very kindly provided a simple yet elegant code to do just
that g. This time format is non-standard in Excel, also, yet I have
code to do this very same thing. Granted, code is vastly different
than the one Graham provided, but it does the same job. That's why I
knew it would be impossible. g

I put the icons for date and time, which are separate, onto my toolbar
yesterday. But I got a "2005-02-10" and "1:30 PM" result. I need to
customize to a toolbar icon something like this instead:

"2005.02.10.Th., 13h30" which is format we use at office.

Is there any way to do this? Or perhaps a macro that I can attach to
a toolbar? Any ideas?

Thanks much! D
