Calculated date fields may be complicated, but all the work has been done
for you and all that is required is to copy and paste to your document and
change the delay and field names (use replace) from the sample document
which you can download from http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm#Third_party
The printdate field is a bit more complicated, in that it displays the date
the document was printed. Print again and the date changes. If you wish to
lock a particular date, then change the field to text (CTRL+SHIFT+F9).

I'm using Word and Access 2003. I'm trying to replicate an appeal
letter. The reason for mentioning Access 2003 is because I included a
Word document as part of an Access report. I do not know to what
extent the capabilities of Word may be diminished when using Access
2003. That said I have 2 problems.
The first is trying to include in this letter a future date based on
the current date. For example current date + 7= 9/13/07. This appears
to be a very complicated procedure to implement into Word. So, I
thought I would create a control [LastDayStepAMeetingP3] in Access
that would give me that information and then insert it into the Word
document. I'm having a problem doing that. If it means anything the
control course is: =DateAdd("d",+7,[DateAppealedFormalStepAP1])
The next problem I'm having is using the PrintDate field in the same
document. When I tested it I got an August 14 date instead of the
current date, September 5. I do not want this date to be updated when
someone tries to print it again. If for some reason we need to print
that specific document again we need it to be the date it was
actually printed.
Thanks for the help.
