Insert current date plus 3 days

Question

I know that I can insert the current date in a field.  Can I create a formula that adds 3 days to the current date field?  FIA

Answer 1

If you want to use a field then download the DateCalc.zip file from here:

http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm#Third_party

This will give you examples of many type of date calculation fields that you can use in your document.

If you just want a process for inserting the date + 3 days as plain text then you can use a macro like:

Sub ScratchMacro()

Selection.InsertAfter Format(DateAdd("d", 3, Date), "MMMM dd, yyyy")

End Sub
