henry d Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Right another "Duh !" moment, I have used Word for a couple of letters and I used General templates>Professional letter. I printed off the letter but also saved it, when I try to print it off again, with the original document date, it always reverts to the current date :blink: Anyone know how to print it with the original date ?? Cheers for any replies :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr W Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Strange I never noticed it did that. Easiest way is to just delete the field box with the date in and re-write the date as far as I can see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 But for some reason it still reverts to the present date ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piebob Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 HD, Dr W means you must actually delete the entire field, not just the contents of the field which is set to always put in todays date. Just highlight the whole field and hit delete. Or, right click on the field (the grey box) and Edit it. There is a "create date" option which populates the field with the date the document was created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry d Posted March 20, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 My apologies Doc :wacko: thanks for the advice ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz24 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Hello Henry. There is also another option available. I don't know if it will effect the template document but it may be worth a try. On the toolbar go to the insert tab and when open find insert time and date. When you highlight the time and date tab the box will open and in the bottom right hand corner of that box there is a little tick box for updateing the date automaticaly. Click the box for auto update unclick for no auto update. Cheers taz. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pin Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Press the button that looks like |P on the toolbar, it will show you all the "mark up" that is normally hidden, this shows you what "clever" things it's doing for you that really **** you off. Like when you change fonts and it keeps reverting etc, you can see where it got set in the document and nuke it :wacko: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
