4 Answers. If you want a blank date, just use \\date{} . If you want to remove the spacing altogether where the date usually goes, look into using the titling package, or else the mechanisms provided by your document class, depending on what it is.

Select the field and press Shift+F9. Right-click the field and choose Toggle Field Codes.

To toggle between the field code and its resulting value, select the entire field and press Shift + F9. To toggle all the fields in your document, press Alt + F9. So if you open a document and see field codes instead of results, simply press Alt + F9 to toggle them all.

Ctrl+Shift+F9 should unlink field codes and substitute the field results (Alt+F9 would suffice to just toggle the view, while leaving the codes intact). If you are still seeing field codes, then they must have been typed from the keyboard rather than inserted using Ctrl+F9.

If you want to omit the date completely, use \\date{} , which stores an empty string. The commands to store your title data can be used in the preamble. Since \\maketitle does actual output, it needs to be used after \\begin{document} . Usually, the title is the first thing in a document.

Open your Word document, and highlight the date. Right click on the highlighted date, and click Edit Field in the context menu that appears. In the Field dialog box, find the list of Field names on the left, and click on CreateDate if you want your document to display the date it was created.

Open the document you created two years ago. Select the date (the one that updated to today's date). Display the Insert tab of the ribbon. In the Text group, click Quick Parts Fields. Choose Date and Time as the field category at the left side of the dialog box. Select CreateDate from the Field Names list.
