Special Text Trick

[GregInChrist]

I am not sure what this feature is called. I don't know how I ever found it to begin with. If I use the normal text tool on a layout and enter // I get a date when I print the layout. If I enter ## I get a page number. 

 

Is there a list of these functions?

 

And specifically is there a time stamp like the date stamp?

 

Thanks in advance,

 

May the Lord Jesus Christ bless you unto salvation through faith in his work on the cross,

 

Greg!

You can also put anything you want into a calc field, and then add that as a Merge Field on the layout... In your case, a combination of the DATe and Time functions should work

In layout mode - look at the list in the insert menu

Greg, please keep political and religious preferences to yourself. An international forum is not the place. :-)
