you're *awesome* . . worked perfectly . . i had no idea to do field
delimiters inside other delimiters . . i was just putting in the
brackets manually .
thank you so much!
'Stefan Blom[_3_ Wrote:

{ = { DATE \@ "YYYY" } - 1 }
Note that you have to insert each pair of field delimiter by pressing
Ctrl+F9.
Also,
be sure to include spaces as suggested by the example above.
To update fields in the selection, press F9. To show/hide field all
codes, press
Alt+F9.

have tried making this happen for days, so please help:
what i want is to create a field in MS Word 2010 that will
automatically
populate with the current year minus one . . so it would show 2011 this
year, 2012 when it's 2013, etc. . .
my best current guess is some kind of function like ={DATE \@ "yyyy"}-1
but just can't get it to happen . .
help please!
