Graham,
As you suggested, I had already done a Alt+F9, and the result was
{ TIME \@ "h:mm am/pm" }
I entered the code you provided below, but got a system error with Time
highlighted:
Compile error:
Expected Function or variable.

It appears the checkbox has become checked? Confirm by presing ALT+F9 to
toggle the fields.
It would be better if you inserted the time/date with a macro as text and
then the issue won't arise. The following macro will insert the current
time.
Sub InsertTimeLowerCase()
With Selection
.Collapse Direction:=wdCollapseStart
.InsertAfter Format(Time(), "h:mm" & Chr(160) & "am/pm")
.Collapse Direction:=wdCollapseEnd
End With
End Sub
(you can change the switch to insert the required format and/or add the
date if the above is not to your taste.)

I have both Word 2003 and 2007 installed on my PC. In the last
couple of days, I noticed something strange about the dates but now
it has become a catastrophe! Trying to keep a journal of certain
activities and use "insert time". IThe automatic checkbox was left
unchecked. But now, when I save and reopen, ALL of the times are the
current time not the time recorded. This occurs for the time format
7:19 PM, but not for the format 19:15. And this occurs in both Word
2003 & 2007 on the PC and Word 2004 on the Mac all opening up the
same file. With each open the times become the current time as if
the automatic date box was checked. It is only effecting the times
entered today. I have a heading date for each day, and then a bullet
list beneath with time stamps at the beginning of each bullet.
