link 2 fields together

[cbaby]

Hi

I'd like to create two llinked fields in word:

from day 09/23/2105 TO 09/28/2015

WITH 09/23/2105 which is a date field which can be changed

and 09/28/2015 which is a formula field : 09/23/2105 + 5

how can I do this ?

but I still have problems to link the 2 fields

the first field is a bookmark named data and its value is 22/09/2105

if create a new formula field with the formula data + 5, it returns 220920!!!

Please have you got a solution

<P>I have already downloaded your before you told me, but I can't see the code of the fields</P>

You could use the tutorial example titled Calculate a day, date, month and year, using n days delay. Simply:
• bookmark your starting date;
• change 'DATE' wherever it appears in the field code to the bookmark name you give your starting date; and
• change the 'Delay' value from 14 to 5.

Glad you've got it sorted.
