Description diane 2003-05-13 02:25:52 UTC
In xl, a couple of useful keystrokes were available to automatically enter the
time or the date into a cell.  This is especially useful in a spreadsheet used
as a time log.  Sorry, I cannot remember which keystroke was which, because it
has been a while since using xl, but control-semicolon was one combination, and
control-colon (control-shift-semicolon) was the other.  Can we have something
similar in calc?

Hi Bettina,

Daniel Rentz posted a message to the users list that says he has a
published article that describes how to do this.  Unfortunately, for
me, I am not able to read German.  But...maybe the article affects the
status of this issue?  Here is the link to the mail thread:

Well, it is a "How To", it includes a few macros, and how to attach
them to key combinations. I may translate it and put it somewhere on
the OOo sites...
I think to fix this issue we need a "real" implementation, and put the
short cuts into the default configuration.

I assume this would also include an associated "Insert current timestamp" toolbar icon?
