Hi,
I am working on XP and I am interested in inserting the date (which updates
automatically) in year format only (i.e. 2007) . The formats avaliable
include the day and month. Is there a way to do this?
Your help is appreciated.

To create a DATE field manually:
1. Press Ctrl+F9 to insert a set of field braces.
2. Between the braces, type:
DATE \@ "yyyy"
3. Press F9 to update the field (if this does not toggle field codes, press
Alt+F9).

If you already have inserted a DATE field via Insert > Field, you can toggle
field codes and change the text between the quotes to "yyyy". Toggle field
codes again and update the field.
