Adding a time stamp to "notes" & Changing multiple "follow-up time

[Guest]

Hello OL Gurus!

I have a two-part question about OL 2003

I have never really used the Journal function of Outlook. I've always liked
to have the main contact screen up when I have a conversations with a client.
This way, I have all of the notes in the "Notes" section, and don't have to
bounce around from tab to tab.

When I have had some kind of communication with a client or prospect, I make
an entry like this:

(06-23-05) Asked a question about Oultook.

I'm trying to find some way to click a button that will the date and time in
there without my having to type it each time. Since I do this multiple times
a day, some sort of automation would do wonders at saving me a lot of time.

My second question is this. How can you go into the phone list view of a
screen and change multiple follow-up times? I can look at the screen and see
multiple clients that I'd like to follow up with on another day. The only
way that I know of to do change a follow-up time is to open each contact
individually. This is time consuming and not very efficient.

I appreciate any info you can offer.

Thanks!

-Marc

Can you group by the follow-up date and use the method described at http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/searchreplacecompany.htm?
