Auto offset many dates in a word document

manpreet Best Answer 2 years ago

I have a syllabus for my class that I wrote in Word. Part of that syllabus is a list of due dates for assignments. The assignments are due a fixed number of days after the start of the term. So one assignment is always due 7 days after the term starts, another 14 days after the terms start and so on. But I want to show the due dates as calendar date (eg. 10/15)

Is there any way to set up the document where I have one master date and the rest of the dates are calculated as an offset from that date? Every quarter I need to update the dates, it is fairly tedious and I always seem to miss a couple.
