EditTime

The EDITTIME field inserts a value corresponding to the number of minutes a file has been open for editing since it was created. This is the same value that appears in the Statistics tab of the Properties dialog box.

Syntax

{ EDITTIME [Switches] }

Switches

EDITTIME supports numeric formatting switches, covered in the "Numeric Formatting Switches" section, earlier in this chapter.

Examples

To display the number of minutes the document has been open for editing, with a comma between thousands, use the following field:

{ EDITTIME \# "#,##0" }
