auto doc = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::Document>(get_MyDir() + u"Document.docx");
auto builder = System::MakeObject<Aspose::Words::DocumentBuilder>(doc);
builder->MoveToDocumentEnd();
builder->Writeln(u" Date this document was created:");

// We can use the CREATEDATE field to display the date and time of the creation of the document.
// Below are three different calendar types according to which the CREATEDATE field can display the date/time.

builder->Write(u"According to the Lunar Calendar - ");
auto field = System::ExplicitCast<Aspose::Words::Fields::FieldCreateDate>(builder->InsertField(Aspose::Words::Fields::FieldType::FieldCreateDate, true));
field->set_UseLunarCalendar(true);

ASSERT_EQ(u" CREATEDATE  \\h", field->GetFieldCode());

// 2 -  Umm al-Qura calendar:
builder->Write(u"\nAccording to the Umm al-Qura Calendar - ");
