BOTH Date AND page Number in header

[Jimbo]

How do I put both a date on the left and the page numbers on the right in a
header? Every time I put one in the other one is deleted.

For left-aligned and right-aligned text to "co-exist" in the same line of
text, you would have to use a right-aligned tab stop.

Further, in Word 2007 (which I assume is where this problem appears),
to insert the page number in the same header with the date you must
use the Current Position item on the Page Number menu, *not* the Top
of Page item.
