Default How do I disable auto date feature in Word XP?

Change the field type that you have inserted from Date to CreateDate then
update the field, which will correct your existing documents, then in your
template change the field also so that new documents use CREATEDATE instead
of DATE.

ever I reopen the document. Thanks for your help.
