Inserting Date In Microsoft Word
Hi
By pressing Ctrl/Alt/D I should be able to insert date in Word however instead the following appears. (Date\@dddd,dd,mmmm,yyyy) Any idea why this is and how I can rectify it? Many thanks Rob |

You have field codes displayed. Press ALT+F9 to hide them and
redisplay field results. -- Stefan Blom "Rob" wrote in message ... Hi By pressing Ctrl/Alt/D I should be able to insert date in Word however instead the following appears. (Date\@dddd,dd,mmmm,yyyy) Any idea why this is and how I can rectify it? Many thanks Rob |

I imagine that what you are really seeing is more like { Date \@ "dddd, dd,
MMMM, yyyy" } and what you are seeing is the field codes that can be toggle on/off by using Alt+F9. After toggling them off, you may need to use Ctrl+A and then F9 to update the fields in the document so that the date is displayed. The above field code will display the date as Wednesday, 05, January, 2005 -- Please post any further questions or followup to the newsgroups for the benefit of others who may be interested.
