isProtectedDateFlag for Microsoft Word

This parameter determines whether date and time fields update or retain their previous values in Word templates.

When Microsoft Word documents are generated from Word templates, date and time fields are updated with the current system date and time. Now, you can decide whether to update these fields or retain their last computed values. This behavior can be controlled by the server-side parameter isProtectedDateFlag

Sample syntax

<param name="isProtectedDateFlag" value="true">

If the parameter is set to false, the date and time fields will always be updated with the current system values, regardless of whether the document is protected or unprotected.

If the parameter is set to true, the fields will retain their last computed values stored in the document, regardless of whether the document is protected or unprotected.

The default value of this parameter is false.
