Default Date/Time/Author stamp in Notes field?

Is there an easy way to get Outlook to include a Date/Time w/logged on user
stamp whenever something is typed into the Notes area on a Contact form?
Extra bonus would be some sort of nice formatting, too.

Thanks in advance.

See if the code at http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/stampdate.htm gives you
a start.

Ken, is there a way to alter the code so that the next date/time stamp is at
the top and pushes the others down? I could keep the most recent at the top.

Thanks
Russell

Russell:

It's curious that you wrote this because I was going to ask Ken just the
opposite: how to code so that the *oldest* appears at the top. As written,
at least for me, the code displays the newest stamp on the top line!

To put something at the top:

item.Body = newData + item.Body;

To put something at the bottom:

item.Body = item.Body + newData;

You either append or prepend your data to the existing Body.
