I meant only a spatially dynamic field not a chronologically dynamic field like a fixed calendar.
I checked the Windows Secrets one and doesn't work correctly today's date comes out right but not other modified forms of dates- I don't whether its because theirs is not designed for Word 2003 or that my computer is Japanese version.

I thought of another option is create calendar using template, delete columns for weekends, add columns for the schedules- fill down using JimP's instructions. Save then save as another document and then consider removing the column boundaries.



I found this for removing column boundaries.
http://www.wordbanter.com/showthread.php?t=44565 and then found the eraser tool and this solves it- it seems it always puts the date at the top and table at the bottom- is that always right? Thanks for all your replies.

That may be because of internationalisation issues, for which a macro remedy is included, as discussed in the Introduction.

I would expect the tool to behave consistently - it's just a matter of choosing carefully what to erase.
