How do I keep orignal date of document when opening document?

  • Thread starter Thread starter ms
  • Start date Start date
M

ms

Whenever I open a word document the date changes to the present date; I don't
want the date to change, I want the original date to stay in the document.
 
The CREATEDATE field inserts the date the document was created and
does not change when documents are reopened.

Press Alt+F9 to display the DATE field. Edit it to say CREATEDATE, then
Alt+F9 to toggle back to the field result and F9 to update the field. If you
use a CREATEDATE field in the template used to create these documents, this
will be automatic.
