Wrong Date Appearing

[Tyson]

I created a user form as a Word (Dot) that has a date
field that is to automatically fill with the CURRENT
DATE. One my computer the field works correctly the date
appears with TODAY date. On other computers the form fills
with the wrong date. What might be the cause of this? I
have checked the BIOS and System Date and they are correct.

Hi Tyson,

I created a user form as a Word (Dot) that has a date
field that is to automatically fill with the CURRENT
DATE. One my computer the field works correctly the date
appears with TODAY date. On other computers the form fills
with the wrong date. What might be the cause of this? I

What versions of Word are involved on these various machines?

Can you give us a couple of concrete examples that compare
what you see on your machine, and what you see on the others?
