date field calculation
I'd like to take a date field (issue/current date) and automatically add 5
yrs. to it (expired date) and insert it into another place in the document. Is this possible using date fields? |

date field calculation
That is one that you can do fairly simply with a field construction
{ date \@ "MM/dd" }/{ = { date \@ "yyyy" } + 5 } will give you 11/17/2010 You must use Ctrl+F9 to insert each pair of field delimiters { }, Alt+F9 to toggle off the display of field codes and F9 to update the fields. -- Hope this helps. Please reply to the newsgroup unless you wish to avail yourself of my services on a paid consulting basis. Doug Robbins - Word MVP "cal" wrote in message ...
