When we save word documents which have 'todays' date automatically inserted,
if we go back into the saved item on another day, it brings in the date on
the day and not the date on the original document. We want to have the date
appear automatically yet be fixed when saved, is this possible?

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.
