The reason is that you have inserted a date field which shows the system
date. What you need to do is change those date fields for createdate
fields - ALT+F9 change {DATE \@ "d MMM yyyy"}or {TIME \@ "d MMM yyyy"} to
{CREATEDATE \@ "d MMM yyyy"} then F9 and ALT+F9 - and change the date in
your letterhead template so that future letters based on it show the correct
dates. The switches \@ "d MMM yyyy" may be different at your location.

In Word2003, my mail merge letters would add the date field, then I
would click the Lock Field button and the date would stay locked.
Now when I re-open a letter in Word 2007, the date automatically
updates, making it look like I sent the letter today, when I actually
sent it weeks ago, and only wanted to look at it today.
