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.

I am using the outlook large white text field on the standard contact

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.
