Default Date Field

Insert a CREATEDATE field instead of a DATE field. See

Good afternoon all.

I have set up a field in Word that displays today's date. I use the

template
to create a document and then save it. However, if I recall that document

to
view it in the future the date shows as the date it is viewed. I want it

to
remain static once the document is saved. Is there a way to do this other
than just typing in the date?
