When i change the status in a task to "completed" it puts the date completed
in the comlumn on the main window. But i would like for it to add the time
automatically as well. Is this possible? Do i need to create some sort of
custom field?

Outlook stores no time information in the DateCompleted property. The time
element is always midnight on the completion date.

The simplest way to store a time element would be to use a custom form that
has a custom field and code behind the form to set the value of the field to
Now() when the item is marked complete. See
http://www.outlookcode.com/article.aspx?ID=38 for a primer on how to use the
PropertyChange event and set the value of a custom field.
