| Follow these steps: Insert a footer into your document (if you don't already have one) by selecting: Insert -> Footer -> Standard With the cursor in the footer area, select: Insert -> Fields -> Other In the dialog that appears, be sure that the 'DocInformation' tab is selected (click to select) If you want the date to update each time the document is modified, select 'Modified' in the 'Type' list. Other choices are 'Last Printed', 'Created', etc. In the 'Select' list, click on 'Date' In the 'Format' list, click on the format desired Make sure that the check box next to 'Fixed content' is not checked Click on 'Insert' Click on 'Close' You should now see the current date. If you see the name of the date field, select: View -> Fields (to turn off the check mark next to this choice). If you see nothing, it may be because you have not yet saved your document for the first time. | ||||||||
