Spacing when inserting date

[Bill H]

When I insert the date into a Word template, the program adds a single space
before the date. This only happens on some systems so it leads me to believe
it's a setting in Word. (Windows 2000 and XP systems using MS Office 2003)
Any help would be greatly appreciated

No help with your immediate problem because I never use Insert > Date or the
keyboard shortcut. I have templates that use a createdate field instead. See
http://addbalance.com/word/datefields1.htm for information on the different
kinds of datefields and how to format them. For more on the different kinds
of templates, tabs on the file new dialog, and locations of templates
folders see http://addbalance.com/usersguide/templates.htm.
