All,
hopefully these are the right NGs for this question.
I have a user who has a template document that they feed into a program that
automatically prints and mail merges them with its database information. The
problem is it needs to have a data five days into the future. I tried doing
this with an embedded excel field which sort of works but doesn't roll over
at the end of the month. The user doesn't want to have to open the document
and force the rollover.
Is there some sort of field code or another way around this with VB so that
we can do what we want?
Thanks much!
-Matthew

I was not able to figure out what I need to do to post date my date field.  
Can you be more speciifc with directions as to how to add 7 days to a current
date settings for a mail merge?

Did you down load fellow MVP Macropod's Date Calc Tutorial that is available
from  http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm#Third_party

It's all in there.
