MS Office Forum / Word / Mailmerge and Fax / April 2004Updated date fields
I'm new to MS Word programming but am asking if there is a way to embed a date field which I update and then embed other fields tha will update from the first embedded date. For example, I have an embedded field date1. Date2 field will be date1 + 7, Date3 field will be date 1-7. Date 4field will be date1+14. Is this possible in Word?  Signaturexnman@charter.net It is possible, but not easy, however the donkey work has been done for you - see http://www.wopr.com/cgi-bin/w3t/showflat.pl?Cat=&Board=wrd&Number=249902 Signature<>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>>< ><<> Graham Mayor - Word MVP Web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site www.mvps.org/word <>>< ><<> ><<> <>>< ><<> <>>< <>>< ><<> > I'm new to MS Word programming but am asking if there is a way to > embed a date field which I update and > then embed other fields tha will update from the first embedded date. > For example, I have an embedded field date1.
