Date format in Header by DK

Thu Aug 05 13:28:20 CDT 2004
Thanks Rajkumar, I tried that but it changes the dates
displayed in the entire chart/view rather than just the
header. I'm fine with the way the date displays in the
chart body, but was trying to automate the header to show
the file saved date in a different format (i.e.
independent of the date fields within the chart).
For now, each time I save a version of the chart I
manually type in the save date in the header as "Updated 5
August, 2004". It's a little thing, but it's something I
was asked to do that should have been easy to automate
(i.e. &[Saved Date \@ "MMMM d, yyyy"]. Unless someone
knows of a way of using field switches in the header, I
guess I'm stuck typing it.
