Join Tim Grey for an in-depth discussion in this video Adding the date and time to a document, part of Learning Word 2007.
For a variety of different documents, you'll want to include a date. …And that's easy enough. You just type a date. …But there's some options that make it faster and easier to that date, and even …to have the date update automatically. This memo for example has a date field …and so I'd like to include the date and there are several options available to me …when it comes to actually adding that date. …I'll go ahead and just start typing a date. …Let's type January, for example, and as soon as I get to the U in January you'll …see that the Auto-complete option pops up, indicating that if I press Enter.…
The word January will be inserted. I'll go ahead and press Enter, and you …can see that January is inserted as the date. …Now, that auto-complete option certainly saves me a little bit of time but it's …not a huge benefit. And perhaps from time to time I won't …even be aware of what the current date is and so I'd like to insert a date …automatically, and include that date with some specific formatting. …
