Default Time/Date stamps in Word


Have been using Word to edit my webpage. Have 5 timezones I want to
automatically update the stamp every time I open the file. See it at
home comcast net ~scottalanclymer. I think the method I'm currently
using is considered a table. It's a snippit of a few columns and rows
from excel using the formulas I already had there in my daily
worksheet. But every time I open my page in Word to update it, I have
to right click the table, hit O, hit E, the table updates the formulas
from the current system time. Then I hit escape. It creates an IMAGE of
the table. Then I have to adjust the width or heighth of the image to
make it look like it's close to being normal again. It's a pain. I'd
rather be able to write the code in Word, 5 lines, utilizing the
time/date function, with offsets for the hours I need, I already have
the math done on that, and have all 5 lines update with no work on my
part each time I open the file for editing. Any takers on this
challenge?
