How do I set up MS word so it prints Tomorrow's date?

[murph]

Currently I am able to past a cell from MS excel into the word document. The
cell will not update when you open the document.

What does your statement have to do with your question that you used as
your subject?

To answer your subject, you could:
this macro:
Sub PrintTommorrowsDate()
Selection.InsertAfter (Date + 1)
ActiveDocument.PrintOut
End Sub

Works in the original document. When you use mailmerge it keeps the
information that was saved and does not update the field.

If you want a field, this is more complex than you might imagine, but it can
be done. See http://addbalance.com/word/datefields2.htm for information on
the different kinds of ways to make a date calculation work. It includes
links to pages with fields and an explanation of different macros that can
be used instead of fields.

Using a Fill-In field to ask for the date might be easier.

Using a fill in "Ask" field for the date was the easier solution that solved
the date issue.
