Yes, this can be done with a little code. See http://www.outlookcode.com/d/code/stampdate.htm

Is there a way to modify it so that the time stamp appears at the cursor location and not on a new line? I'm an extreme novice who had to learn what "macro" even meant, so the simplest explanation is much appreciated. In addition, is there a way to change my name to just my initials instead of my full name? Thanks for any insight.
