I am currently using a User Defined macro for my header in layout, it is written as t = Time.new.strftime("%B %d, %Y") and displays as February 26, 2016 a format that I am happy with but would like to have control of when
it updates. If it could be updated with a couple of clicks when I choose rather than every time the file is opened that would be great. I assume that my idea of a "Print date macro" would have to be written right into the program,
possibly X9. I am currently using X7 ( just for a few more days ) so I assume that the printed date macro you are talking about for layout is a Global macro where there are only two choices %date.long% which displays as
Friday, February 26, 2016 and %date.short% which displays 2/26/2016. I believe that both of these also update every time the file is opened, no choices.
Many thanks for taking the time to help me out.
