Default Built-in time interval calculation in a Word file?

Hi everyone -

I need to calculate a time interval in my Word file. For example my deadline
is MArch 1st. If I print my file on February 1st I want the file to say "30
days left," if i print on February 14th it should say "14 days left," etc. Is
there a formula that can be insterted into word, something like =(3/1/07
minus TODAYS-DATE)?
