Is there a way to automatically date/timestamp note entries? I use notes for all of my status updates, and currently manually enter the date that I am making the notation, but it sure would be nice to have an automatic date stamp instead.

Thanks in advance

There isn't a way inside Toodledo, but there are a number of keystroke completion applications out there that can do this on an OS level, which means that it would be available in any app you use, not just Toodledo. TextExpander is one that I use on the Mac.

Thanks for that information! Sounds like a good alternative. I'll have to see if there is an equivalent program for Windows.

I use Autohotkey (www.autohotkey.com) for Windows and I have the following script to enter date and time

::dt::
FormatTime, CurrentDateTime,, dd/MM/yyyy h:mm tt
SendInput %CurrentDateTime% {enter}
return

It gives the format 18/03/2010 10:32 PM

You can also get it to do lots of other things, but it does require a little more effort than TextExpander.
