equivalent of using the PrintDate field in the Special Fields ("Field
Explorer" dialog box) folder in the
"Field Explorer" dialog box.
If PrintDate >= CDate(1992,01,01) Then
"Please excuse the delayed report."

Prints the message apologizing for the
delay if the report prints after January 1, 1992, and prints nothing if the
report prints before that date.
