Today's date + n days

[Thorbjorn Sundboe]

Hi,

I cannot find any more relevant newsgroup than this one for this request.

I want to insert a future date based on today's date into my document, like
today + n days brought forward to the next working day. Tried to insert a
fielld with DATE + 45, but it just inserts today's date.

Cheers, Thorbjorn

So I found the solution through a Macro (!) on Graham Mayor's page (thanks
for that). If you ever wondered, here it is:

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.

Hi,

To see how to do this and more with dates using fields instead of macros,
