There is a pair of default FM variables: "Modification date long" and "Modification date short" that will do what you want.

<br/>The problem I foresee with this method is that the variable will automatically update when the document is opened on or after the 1st of each month, even if the content of the document hasn't been modified. If you want the new date only when modifications are made, create a user variable that you edit at the time of the revisions.

I have a document that changes very frequently, sometimes every month. The client likes to have a “version” in the header, such as “March 2013 Version”, “April 2013 Version,” etc. Is there a way to globally revise all of my master pages in the book from say March to April in the header title? I’m currently running FM10 and would prefer to do this without using framescript since not everyone working with these documents has framescript. Thanks in advance for the help.
