Hi again. Next request for help/advice coming up.
Back in the dim and distant early 90s, those heady days of WordPerfect for DOS,
I had a nice little macro written that would bring up my letter template
including the correct date as a fixed date.
In Word, my date field options are to have an automatically updating field (so
that whenever I reopen an old saved file it shows me "today's" date rather than
the date the file was saved) or enter the date on the basis of "insert>date and
time>[click on date format] and uncheck *update automatically*. That's very
cumbersome - I would like the option to embed a suitable macro in my template
but have been scared to investigate macros in Word!
Anybody out there willing to guide me through the maze?
Thanks
Anne
