Automatic date removal
Technically speaking, we do not know if the CREATEDATE is the correct thing
to do. What if the document was created December 12, 2008...but the date in the document was for - oh, I don't know - the date an invoice was sent, November 2, 2008. Or, the date of something in the future "Pay up by February 1, 2009 or we will send thugs." I can agree that it is likely that CREATEDATE is what the OP wants, but we certainly do not know this for sure. If CREATEDATE is not desired, unfortunately the OP is out of luck. If the DATE field was set for automatic update, there is no record of its original value. Terry Farrell wrote: I can hear the Indian Ocean calling!

Automatic date removal
Well Yes and No!
If it shows 'date of invoice' that was a day that differed from the CreateDate, then it was probably entered manually and wouldn't update. If the Op new how to enter a different date (from the CreateDate) automatically, I guess they would know sufficient about Word dates to understand CreateDate anyway. g Terry "Fumei2 via OfficeKB.com" u53619@uwe wrote in message news:a479213b2ede3@uwe...
