date field in 2.6.3 reports

[mark]

First, my apologies if this topic had been addressed (and for inadvertantly 
sending it to the wrong address.) I recently upgraded to 
2.6.3 and when setting up my packing slips, invoices, quotes etc I cannot get 
the current days date to appear. I use custom headers and the report generated 
fields appear under them. The missing date field was located right justified just 
under my header. I've fooled around in edit/preferences, and the report and 
style sheet options. I've tried creating style sheets and reports based on 
various templates to no avail. Is this feature still available? Once posted 
the posting date and due date appear above the items list, left justified.

What I'd really like is for the date the invoice was created to appear but I 
never found an easy way to do that The feature would be nice as I often fill 
orders in multiple shipments on different days and the packing slips and 
ultimately the invoice all have different dates on them. I once tried to learn 
the scripting language used for these reports but never felt comfortable 
mucking about with them. If anyone knew how to do that I could probably follow 
direction
