MS Office 2000, specifically in Word.
I compose a dated letter or memo letter.  If I open it again say a week
later, the date changes to the current date.  This makes it difficult to
print all these at a later time, but still have the date on which they were
sent or posted.
Is there a setting that I can change that will force any document created to
retain the original date ( typed within the body obviously) inserted?

Thanks
Brandon
