    Yes, I think you've described what I meant quite correctly.Â 
    However, when I choose ShowVariable, it will insert the correct text
    and date in the the main body of the document but not in headers or
    footers.Â  For text variables only a empty space character appears.Â 
    For numeric variables meant to represent the date, it inserts the
    number zero (which displays the date 30 Dec 1899).Â  Perhaps there is
    something obvious that I am missing.Â  Perhaps it is something unique
    to LO 4.0 on WinXP.Â  I created a sample document today as a
    demonstration (see attached).Â  The same problem occurred using
    WinXP, but when I opened the test document at home where I run
    Debian testing and LO 3.5.4.2, there was no problem at all.<br>

    Thanks.<br>

        <pre>I am trying to verify this, but I would like to understand what you are doing,
exactly. This is my first time creating a variable. I went to Insert -&gt; Other
-&gt; Variables and used Set Variable to create a new variable myVar with text
"variable text". Then I followed your steps.

Insert -&gt; Fields -&gt; Other -&gt; Variables -&gt; ShowVariable, and clicked Insert. It
worked on inserting "variable text" or the name myVar, depending on which I
selected. It worked for the Header and Footer.

If this is not what you meant, could you please clarify?
