How do you think a date inserted by macro or even typed from the keyboard
would have greater legal significance than one inserted by a field
calculation?

Unfortunately, Word doesn't provide a simple field-based way to do
date arithmetic. If you've got nothing better to do and yoru document
has no legal significance, you can experiment Macropod's hilarious
field calculations (do a Google); but if the requirement is anything
serious, you'll need to use a macro.

Hey all,
I use Word97. I'm trying to create an auto update field that shows
the print date + 28 days in 'day, date month year' format in a
letter. The field code for the print date is: { PRINTDATE \@ "dddd, dd
MMMM
yyyy" \* MERGEFORMAT }
I've experimented with a couple of things, but had no glory at all.
Cheers
Tony
