Calculate next month in WORD 2010

I am trying to calculate next day in Word 2010 and use the next formula in the field

= {DATE \@ "M" } + 1

But I've got an error:

!Syntax Error, {

I've tired to find why it doesn't work. It's my first experiens woth fields in Word. Please, help me with it.

Solution

  • All the {} in nested field codes have to be the special field code braces that you can enter using ctrl-F9 on Windows versions of Word. (Unless, of course, the "{" or "}" are intended to be characters in a string. That particular syntax error strongly suggests that you have just typed the characters using the { and } keys on the keyboard.
