Automatic Date and Time Stamp

[Mickey]

Is there any kind of feature buried in VW that will do an automatice date and time stamp?

Maybe a vector script?

Thanks

There is a date stamp tool in drawing graphics.mcd library file.

This will not automatically update each time the file is saved or the name is changed. You will need to "re-stamp" the document to get the new file name/date, etc.

Thank You

That will work

"This will not automatically update each time the file is saved or the name is changed. You will need to "re-stamp" the document to get the new file name/date, etc."

Actually, any changes made to an existing time/date stamp in the object info palette will update the stamp.

You can simply uncheck and re-check any checkbox for example, and the new time or date (or filename) will appear in the existing stamp.

This could be detrimental however, if you do not want a stamp to be updated. Perhaps a switch could be added to the object info for the stamp, such that the user could either allow or disallow the stamp to be updated when changes are made.
