I'm new to mac, having used microsoft word before... the letter-heading template I used on Word updated the date every time I opened it, so I always had the right date showing. How can I get my new letter-heading template do that in Pages? When I select date and time from the Insert menu it's fine, but the next day it still shows yesterday's date. Any advice? Thanks!!

Rightclick the date, select "Edit Date & Time..."

Then check "Automatically update on open"
