Timestamp in Notes

[Tami-Lee]

I am a new user of Mac and am checking out compatible database systems for our small business. Our needs are basic, but I do not have a lot of experience or time to create something that will fits our needs. Maybe my question is simple enough to get an answer on this forum (that's my hope anyway). I can use any one of the templates available and edit it, but I am not sure how to get the results I am looking for. For example,

1. I need a field that will "timestamp" before entering notes in the notes field. The notes field will need to hold 6-8 entries.

2. When I send an email from FM I need a copy sent to the notes field.

Any suggestions/help would be greatly appreciated!

You'll need a subscription, $25.00/qtr., but it's well worth the investment.
