How do I insert a date into the Outlook contact text box
I am using the outlook large white text field on the standard contact form to
track the date and time that I have communicated with my contacts. Typing the date each time I make an new entry is time consuming. I'd like to put a button on the form that when clicked would insert the current date/time at the position of the curser. How might this be accomplished.

How do I insert a date into the Outlook contact text box
Unless you use Word as your e-mail editor or Redemption
(http://www.dimastr.com), you cannot control the insertion point of text by the position of the cursor. -- Eric Legault (Outlook MVP, MCDBA, old school WOSA MCSD, B.A.) Try Picture Attachments Wizard for Outlook: http://www.collaborativeinnovations.ca Blog: http://blogs.officezealot.com/legault/ "BarryL" wrote: I am using the outlook large white text field on the standard contact form to track the date and time that I have communicated with my contacts.

But you could trivially use the EM_REPLACESEL with SendMessage (use
FindWindowEx to find the rich text window on the Inspector). -- Josh Einstein Einstein Technologies Microsoft Tablet PC MVP Tablet Enhancements for Outlook 2.0 - Try it free for 14 days www.tabletoutlook.com "Eric Legault [MVP - Outlook]" wrote in message ...
