I have a document I send out 10 times a dy and it needs the current time I
send it out. I am looking for a way that word will automatically put the time
in the documeent when I open and change the document.

Put the cursor where you want the time to appear in the document, click Insert
Field, choose a TIME field with the formatting you want, and click OK.

Just before you send the document, click on the field and press F9 (or
right-click and choose Update Field) and then press Ctrl+F11 to lock the field
so its value won't change unexpectedly.

The next time you're about to send the document, click on the field and press
Ctrl+Shift+F11 to unlock it, F9 to update it, and Ctrl+F11 to lock it again.
