51770 2002-05-31 10:31:00 Hi people,

A wee enquiry regarding the date in word 2000.

When you select veiw then header/footer and click on insert date, well fair enough,
but when you return to the document a week later it's updated.

Is there a way that one can insert the date automatically and not have it updated.

Cheers merlin-nz :-)

Untick Automatic Update Links at open (I think, or something along the same lines) to stop it automatically updating the fields.

Change date on PC - open Doc - date stays same - check auto update box - change date - date updates
