Or you could copy the sample date calculation field from Macropod's document
at
http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/show...?Number=249902 and change the delay
to 10.

When you see the construction below you will see why you need to copy it -
or use Excel to do the job

{QUOTE{SET Delay 10}{SET a{=INT((14-{DATE \@ M})/12)}}{SET b{={DATE \@
yyyy}+4800-a}}{SET c{={DATE \@ M}+12*a-3}}{SET d{DATE \@ d}}{SET
jd{=d+INT((153*c+2)/5)+365*b+INT(b/4)-INT(b/100)+INT(b/400)-32045+Delay}}{SET
e{=INT((4*(jd+32044)+3)/146097)}}{SET f{=jd+32044-INT(146097*e/4)}}{SET
g{=INT((4*f+3)/1461)}}{SET h{=f-INT(1461*g/4)}}{SET
i{=INT((5*h+2)/153)}}{SET dd{=h-INT((153*i+2)/5)+1}}{SET
mm{=i+3-12*INT(i/10)}}{SET yy{=100*e+g-4800+INT(i/10)}}{=dd*10^6+mm*10^4+yy
\# "00'-'00'-'0000"} \@ "dddd, d MMMM yyyy"}

What is the data source. It might be far easier to set up a dynamic
field there (if it's Excel or Access), than to do this with Word.

Hi, I have a mail merge with about 2000 records. I'm automatically
inserting
the current date at the top of the letter. Further down, I have to
insert a
date that is 10 days from the automatically created current date. How can
I
do this? I've read some of the other posts and followed the links
to the websites, but I don't understand how much I need to change.

Please help.

Thanks.
