trivial but: prior versions of lo used to update this field when a document was saved or closed with changes, effectively a last revised date. it now no longer updates converting that date to a last inserted date which some may use as a creation date. if the latter is desired it could easily be added as normal text, allowing the user to have a creation & last revised date. Operating System: Windows 7 Version: 4.2.5.2 release Last worked in: 4.2.4.2 release
Kind of thin on specific steps to reproduce. Works correctly for me on Windows 7 sp1, 64-bit with Version: 4.2.5.2 Build ID: 61cb170a04bb1f12e77c884eab9192be736ec5f5 Could this simply be an issue with working with fielded data? What do you see if you use the <Ctrl><F9> key to toggle back and display the field names. Is the date field in question showing as Date (fixed), or the Date field (so variable on save)? Also, you can use <Ctrl><F2> to open the Fields dialog popup and control both the fields and the formatting of each. Note that there is also a DocInformation tab that has Created and Modified date field selections as needed. And, use the <F9> key to update the fields during editing. Have another go working with these field object controls and see if still an issue.

@Ken, *, When I open your attached .ODT, and toggle--<Ctrl><F9>--to display the fields, I find that both dates are entered as "Date (Fixed)" meaning they should not change from the date stamp as generated. As I mentioned the correct field to use would be "Date" if you want it to refresh when <F9> is keyed or when saved. Fields are accessed from the <Ctrl><F2> "Fields" dialog. Alternatively you could use the "DocInformation:Modified" field and select the Date option. So, please work with the Fields dialog, and review its Help for usage. If you still believe there is an issue, reopen. Stuart Closing.
thank you so much. i guess the default for prior versions was date & not fixed date or did the new version include mention of the change? ken.
