Default Fix Date

Press Alt+F9 to display the DATE field code and edit it to CREATEDATE. If
you're using a template for the document, change the field in the template.

I use the toolbar date insert function but when I re-open the document
it changes to the current date. I know there is a way of fixing the
date so that it remains as the original document but cannot remember
how. Can anyone help please?
