MS-Word and Insert Date

Save the template and then each new document created from the template will show the document create date/time.

Thanks for the response.

Unfortunately, this returns the original Creation Date of the Word file (prior to importation to the UR Templates folder).

New Items derived from this Word doc Template carry the Word Field, but the date shown is the original Creation Date.

I don't think there's an easy way to do this without turning to a formula, which may be why I've always typed the date for new Items (and even here I have to fight Word not to auto-complete).
