When I open a word document a day or more later the original date has
changed to the date when I open it. How can I stop this? Open the date and time dialogue box (from the Insert menu) and unselect the 'Update automatically' check box. kind regards Sandra |

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. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Puzzled wrote: When I open a word document a day or more later the original date has changed to the date when I open it.
