Default Inserting static date field into a template

Hello,

I have a template that includes a date field. Each time a document is
created the current date is inserted. I would like to be able to then fix
this date so that there is no way of updating the field. I should say that I
cannot use a VBA solution. Any help gratefully received.

Use a CREATEDATE field in the template.
