Remove Timestaps

I have got a lot of documents which use the time code field:
Like this:

TIME \@ "DDDD D MMMM YYYY"

These documents are read only and the time remains what they
originally were.
I am now wanting to convert them to PDF but when I do this it changes
all these fields to today's date.

Is there any way that I can convert these fields to whatever original
dates they were as per current document.
When I created these documents originaly I simply used this field in a
macro to easily add timestapms but they never updated by themselves to
today's date.

Bottom line, how can I keep them to their orig dates without having to
type over them manually?

Thanks

Great, that works fantastic!

Now is there any way that I can automate this process. I have got
close to 10 years worth of dates January to December in multiple
files.

Even if I can run a macro or something per file which would be per
month to make these changes automatically, otherwise I would stil have
356 x 10 changes to make.
Beats typing each date in manually but still.

Cheers
