I would like to add a day to a date-field in a Word document, but I have no
success. Please help me. I would like the result to look like this

This is more complex than you might imagine, but it can be done. See
http://addbalance.com/word/datefields2.htm for information on the different
kinds of ways to make a date calculation work. It includes links to pages
with fields and an explanation of different macros that can be used instead
of fields.
