Automatically generated Date/Time in subject line

Hi there,
I’m just wondering is it possible to have the date and or time automatically added to the subject line if I create a new e-mail message or if I receive or reply to an e-mail from someone?
Any help appreciated!
Regards,
Bonemister

Hi,
We can design a custom form to achieve this goal. Since I don't know the version of Outlook you are using, just take Outlook 2013 for example. Please follow the steps below:
1. Enable Developer tab if you haven’t done this. Go to File > Option > Customize Ribbon, tick the check box before
Developer from the right side of the Outlook Options dialog. Click OK.
2. Click on Developer tab in the ribbon. Tap Design a Form.
3. Choose Message in the Standard Forms Library and click
Open.
4. In the form window, right click on the text box next to the Subject and select
Properties from the pop-up menu.
5. In the Properties dialog, click on Value tab.
6. Tick the option ‘Set the initial value of this field to:’ and enter
Date() in the box. (If you want to show the time, just type
Time())
7. Click OK. We can click Run This Form button to preview the form.
8. After that, click Publish > Publish Form As
to publish your form and save it to your Personal Forms Library.
How to customize and publish a form, please refer:

Since this forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook, if you have any further develop problems, please post in Outlook for developers forum:

Thank you for your understanding.

  • Automatically inserting Julian Date (yyD) in subject line in Mail

    Problem: I would like to automatically insert at the beginning of the Subject line in a new Mail message, a Julian Date, eg. 06277. The suffix to this date (yyD) is /n (where n is the sequential number commencing at 0001hrs for the given day (D).
    Question: How do I achieve this? AppleScript or Automator? Further, what is either the script or the automator commands?

    Hi Jeffrey
    I've emailed the full script to you, so make sure it doesn't end up inyour Junk Mail.
    Just so that others, can see, the script is;
    set jDay to do shell script "date +%j"
    set jYear to do shell script "date +%y"
    set theSubject to jYear & jDay
    tell application "Mail"
    set theNewMessage to make new outgoing message with properties {subject:theSubject}
    tell theNewMessage
    -- Default is false. Determines whether the compose window will
    -- show on the screen or whether it will happen in the background.
    set visible to true
    end tell
    end tell
    (Now you can give me a star)

    Your program does not create an Excel File.  It creates a text file that Excel is able to open up and import.
    As it is right now, the name of the file you create is  determined by a dialog box that pops up with the old version of the Open/Create/Replace file that you have.  If you want the program to determine the file name, you need to build a file path out of string data in the same manner you are using the string coming from the Get Date/Time String function you have inside the loop.

  • Adobe forms - using form field data to populate subject line and body of email

    HI
    I have created a form that can be submitted by e-mail. I would like the data entered into the form to populate the subject line and body of the email but have no idea of how to script this. I would be grateful if someone could have a look at the form and see how I can achieve this.
    For example
    subject line: Travel and accommodation form [Name] [EventName] [StartDate]
    Body:
    Please open the attached travel and accommodation for for [Name] who will be attending [EventName] on the [Start Date]
    Here is the code for my button:
    <field name="Submit" y="219.075mm" x="139.7mm" w="34.925mm" h="6mm">
                <ui>
                   <button/>
                </ui>
                <font typeface="Myriad Pro"/>
                <caption>
                   <value>
                      <text>Submit</text>
                   </value>
                   <para vAlign="middle" hAlign="center"/>
                   <font typeface="Myriad Pro"/>

                   </fill>

                </event>
             </field>
    Please excuse my ignorance as not competent with XML so any help would be gratefully received. Have already tried some methods posted on here already but not helped.

    You should post this to the LiveCycle Designer forum here if you haven't already.

  • How do I Automatically Generate Dates 10 days in the future in letters in Word 2010?

    I use MS Word 2010.  I have a template that requires me to generate a date ten days in the future.  I have tried writing macros but I can't get them to work or run.  Clearly, I have no idea how to do this.  Can someone assist?

    To see how to do this and just about everything else you might want to do with dates in Word (using field coding instead of macros), check out my Microsoft Word Date Calculation Tutorial, at:
    http://windowssecrets.com/forums/showthread.php/154368-Microsoft-Word-Date-Calculation-Tutorial
    or:
    http://www.gmayor.com/downloads.htm#Third_party
    In particular, look at the item titled 'Calculate a day, date, month and year, using n days delay'. Do read the document's introductory material. Note too that, instead of using a plain DATE field, you'd probably need to use the CREATEDATE field.
    If you'd prefer a macro solution, post back.

  • How to automatically open date/time field (calendar) when end user tabs to that field

    Have two calendar fields...calendar 1 and calendar two
    Is there a way to have the calendars automatcally open when field is either clicked on or tabbed to?
    thanks

    You can try one work around:
    Add another UDF time with plain text field.
    Implement post-insert event handler to insert time value in this field. In the event handler you can write the code to put time in the format you want.

  • Remove a meeting on specific time date and subject line

    Hi
    I have a situation where a meeting organizer is no longer able to update or cancel a meeting she booked. Some how she also became the participant of the meeting and now has lost control of the actual meeting. Not able to edit or send update. I've exhausted
    my efforts in trying to find a solution for this. Doesn't look like there is anyway to get back ownership or transfer it to someone else.
    So my next plan is to remove the meeting from everyone's calendar via a script. So my question is, is there a way to remove a meeting from all participants calendar where the date/time and subject line is known. This is to ensure only that meeting is removed
    from the calendar.
    or if anyone has some other ideas please do share. I need to somehow send notification of cancellation and remove the meeting from outlook and the organizer has no control anymore.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Per my understanding, you might want to display all the specific documents in a page, they can be filtered by values of a Date and time column.
    A possible solution I will provide is that, we can create custom visual web part to display all these documents. In the code behind, run a query with CAML to retrieved all the
    documents with the specific date and time, then generate a view of hyperlinks that points to these documents.
    In this way, we can combine the filter component with the data display component into one web part, with the help of CAML query and Object Model, it would not be a tough job to
    implement such a solution.
    More information about CAML and Object Model:

  • How to format Data in subject line of an Email

    I have an email submit button on my LiveCycle form and the client wants data from the form in the subject line of the email. I have the button set up and the patterns set up on the fields but the data in the subject line doesn't display the way it does in the fields. this is what I have.
    var oDoc = event.target;
    var nSubject = Page1.Top.txtEmpID.rawValue + " " + Page1.Top.dteTo.rawValue;
    oDoc.mailDoc({
    cTo: "[email protected]",
    cSubject: nSubject,
    cMsg: Page1.Top.txtLastName.rawValue + " " + "Performance Agreement"
    The Employee ID is 7 digits including leading zeros (0123456) and the date is formatted MM-DD-YYYY. When it goes to the subject line it doesn't show the leading zeros (123456) and the date is formatted YYYY-MM-DD.
    Any help is appreciated, Thanks.

    To get the formatted date striong use formattedValue instead of the rawValue in your scriptings.

  • Boilerplate Subject Line for E-Mail Replies?

    Hello.
    Automator is still sort of a mystery to me, but I wonder if it might hold the answer what I want to try to do. I posted this in the "Apple Mail" section but was unable to get a solution. However someone suggested Automator might be the key.
    When I reply to almost every e-mail I receive, I like to put this "prefix" ahead of the Original Subject Line ...
    From My Name (mm/dd/yy) re: Original Subject Line
    Is there a way to create a workflow that would spit this text-and-date out ... even if I could automate the first part and then insert it in front of the Original Subject Line that appears when I hit REPLY, that would be most helpful.
    Thanks for any time you can give to this. If you think it's do-able, can you suggest a step-by-step way I can order the workflow or, outside of Automator, how I could automate the text to insert it?
    imac intel   Mac OS X (10.4.5)   February 2006 Windows Refugee!

    Have you had any luck with this? I'm also trying to come up with a simple workflow that creates a new email message and places today's date in the subject line. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Removing Text From Incoming Subject Line

    My ISP automatically adds "*SPAM*" to the subject line of e-mails it suspects of being spam. It's a great feature, but as can be expected, sometimes it marks a message that isn't spam. Is there a way to automatically remove the tag from e-mails that meet certain criteria, i.e.: the sender is a previous recipient?

    Mail doesn't allow any editing of received messages. Mail Tags may be able to help, but I don't think so.

  • Tax code input for Automatically Generated Line Items

    Hi Guys,
    We want to input a tax code for the Automatically generated line item..for exchange rate differences in F-28.
    Once i simulate the F-28 , and i try to input the tax code in the Automatically generated line item for exchange rate difference,
    I cannot input the tax code in that screen..and it is greyed out.
    Is there a way we can assign a tax code for this GL account line item that is automatically generated by the system ?
    Thanks,

    Hello,
    you have to add the tax code in GL master data. if that's not possible (several codes possible), I would set up a substitution.

  • Required Text Field for automatically generated line items

    Hi Experts,
    I have noticed that when additional line items is automatically generated by SAP, the line item text field becomes required for those items.  This happens regardless of the configuration made in the field status group....
    For example, when posting cross company code transactions using account assignment model, the balancing entries (automatically generated by SAP) requires an input for text field.  The same scenario happened when I run F-58 in background (BDC), and there are additional line items in my entry.
    Can you please share some insights on SAP's behavior.  And is it possible to turn it off?
    Thank you.

    Dear:
                  1st check out the configuration for text filed that whether it has been set mandatory in the following FSG
                   1.... Field status groups which we assign to Recon Accounts of customer--OBC4
                   2..... Posting keys---OB41
                  3....... Field status group for Customer account group

    See if it has been set mandatory there. Revert back in case issue is not resolved.

  • Automatically displaying date and time in a date/time field on form initialize

    Good day all;
    I am trying to have the current date and time automatically be generated in a “date/time” field when the form is opened.
    I went through the forum and found an entry from Srini “ xfa.host.messageBox("" + Date());” . Of course this brought up a system message box with the date and time.
    I then tried “DateTimeField1.rawValue = (“”+date())… This also gave me a system message box with the date and time…
    Please let me know where I am going wrong
    Chomp

    Found the answer... And yes... in was in the "help" section... What can I say I was making it a lot more crazy than I needed to.
    You can use a date/time field to automatically show the current date by using the Runtime Property option in the Value tab of the Object palette.
    When using a current date field, the date updates to reflect the system’s current date each time a user opens the form.
    1.
    In the Library palette, click the Standard category and drag a Date/Time Field object onto the form design.
    2.
    In the Object palette, click the Value tab and select Calculated - Read Only from the Type list.
    3.
    Select the Runtime Property option.
    4.
    View the form in the Preview PDF tab.
