Time/Date Stamp Workaround for Notepad (73848)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows 3.0
- Microsoft Windows 3.0a
This article was previously published under Q73848 SYMPTOMS
The time/date stamp in Windows Notepad does not display the time on the
document.
WORKAROUND
To get the time and date to appear on the document:
- From the File menu, choose Page Setup.
- In the header or footer section, whichever you would like to use,
enter the following:
This prints the system date followed by a comma, a space, and then the
system time. (This information does not appear on the screen.)
This is a temporary workaround that functions only as long as Notepad is
active (minimized, in a window, or in full-screen mode). Once Notepad is
closed, the header defaults back to "&f" and the footer defaults back to
"Page &p".
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows versions 3.0 and
3.0a. This problem does not occur in later versions of Windows.
