Can I set up an automatic date insertion to change for each page?
I am creating a diary entry document and need to insert a different date on
each page. Is there a way to have the date automatically change each time i go to a new page in a document? |

Heese,
You could do a mail-merge with an excel database consisting of one column with all your dates. The only caveat is that Word will create a new section for each date, but that can easily be overcome with a search and replace, search for section and replace with manual page end.

Hi Luc,
You could do a mail-merge with an excel database consisting of one column with all your dates. The only caveat is that Word will create a new section for each date, but that can easily be overcome with a search and replace, search for section and replace with manual page end. Even easier would be to choose a "catalog" (or "directory") type of mail merge...
