I've done it by setting a user-defined variable for the date, and just changing it when I wanted to update the date. I used search and replace in the .jmx file to do so. If I'd needed it for anything but a short term solution, however, I'd've made a function or modifier for it. Modifier is probably the best way to go (more in line with the thinking behind Extractors)
