I have a windows MS word document that has been forwarded to me by email. I'm using office 2010 but have no idea what version it was created on. I am trying to establish when the document was first created by using the system properties. My confusion is that I'm looking on the statistics tab and the created date is after the printed date which makes no sense to me. Is there a perfectly reasonably explanation for this? If there is what is it, and perhaps more importantly can I reliably establish when the document was first created using the properties?

Thanks for any help or light you can shed.
