Word - change date field in multiple templates

[PCBerg]

Hi!

I have about 150 Word templates where I need to change the date field in the
heading from "Current date" to "Created date". Is there a way to do this for
all the documents, or do I need to do it manually for each document?

there may be a more automated way but how about creating a Macro to simplify
the task.

Thanks for the tip. I was aware of "the macro way", but I was hoping for an
even more automated suggestion. To create an efficient macro, I have to be
able to recognize the "CreatedDate" field in all documents. This means that
there can't be more than one instance of the field in each document. I can't
be sure of this.

So I think maybe we have to do it manually (with a small macro to change the
field after selcting it), if no one else has any suggestions?

Luckili, I won't be doing the job...
