Is there, by any chance, any key combination to insert the current date and
time, in a similar way that you can by pressing F5 in Notepad? ss. |

you can show the last modified time stamp in the status field of notes
(tools, options, other tab, advanced options - when showing notes, show time and date in the appearance section) outlook doesn't provide a way to insert the date in a note other wise - I use activewords to insert it as I learned not to trust the date stamp because it often got messed up when syncing with a pda. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com "Synapse Syndrome" wrote in message ...

I am using Outlook 2007. you can show the last modified time stamp in the status field of notes (tools, options, other tab, advanced options - when showing notes, show time and date in the appearance section) Those seem to display by default, but the date keeps changing everytime the note is edited.

I was hoping there would be a macro that could be used in Notes. I found that other people have been asking for the same thing, and I came across ShortKeys Lite. I think it could be useful for me in other areas, like command line. http://www.shortkeys.com/lite.htm ss. |

That is very similar to activewords. There is at least one other windows
utility that offers similar features, but I can never recall the name. -- Diane Poremsky [MVP - Outlook] Author, Teach Yourself Outlook 2003 in 24 Hours Need Help with Common Tasks? http://www.outlook-tips.net/beginner/ Outlook 2007: http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/ol2007/ Outlook Tips by email: Subscribe to Exchange Messaging Outlook newsletter: Outlook Tips: http://www.outlook-tips.net/ Outlook & Exchange Solutions Center: http://www.slipstick.com "Synapse Syndrome" wrote in message ...
