I am not sure If I am asking in the correct Forum but.. I have a problem..

I have tons of word 97 documents that need a current date on the doc. so that when the user prints, the current date is also printed on the doc.

Is there a way to assign a current date on all the documents w/o having to manually go into each doc and adding a date?

Thanks!
 
This may not help with your existing docs, but for future documents you can insert the date and have it automatically update when the doc is opened, printed, etc (in word 2000 or above, I'm not sure about '97). On the insert menu there is a Date and Time... option. Play around with it, check the help files; it is a useful feature.
