Suzanne, Thank you.
I tried the suggestion and it worked, but it did not work when i tried to
place the REF within a header. What I am trying to do is to fill in a
field
with the date and for this date to appear within the header of the
document.
For some reason, when I try to reference the date field in the header it
doesnt allow me to do it. Can you help me further?
