Today's date in outlook template

Is there any way to insert today's date in outlook's template subject or body? Such that whenever I open the saved template, today's date should be automatically shown in subject and body.

Is there any inbuilt function? something like Date() ?

Nope. Templates don't provide anything for that.

Instead, you may consider creating a VBA macro or add-in. In the NewInspector or Active event you can check out the CurrentItem property of the Inspector class - whether it is a new item and created using a template. Typically new Outlook items don't have the EntryID property set. And then insert the current date wherever you need.
