Under Type select Date and under Select select Date - not "Date (fixed)". One point of confusion is that at Insert | Fields > you will see a Date entry - but this is actually the "Date (fixed)" variety, not the (variable) Date that you need. So ignore that and proceed to Other... . I trust this helps. Brian Barker
