Dane,

If you open the Help and enter "date" you should find a "dates:  
inserting" item.

Here is a copy of the contents (from NeoOffice, but it should be  
exactly the same in OOo)

Inserting a Fixed or Variable Date Field

You can insert the current date as a field that updates each time you  
open the document, or as a field that does not update.

• Choose Insert - Fields - Other and click the Document tab.
• Click 'Date' in the Type list and do one of the following:
• To insert the date as a field that updates each time you open the  
document, click 'Date' in the Select list.
• To insert the date as a field that does not update, click 'Date  
(fixed)' in the Select list.

Hope that helps !
