No, the times that are already in the file won't go away, but it will no longer put times and dates at the end of the file when you open the file because the line that gives notepad the instructions to put the time and date is: .LOG Bill White billwhite92701@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: Samara Raine To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, March 19, 2010 3:23 PM Subject: Re: accessible diary software Got it! Thanks!. If we take the .LOG out after the time shows, will it go away? ----- Original Message ----- From: Bill White To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Friday, March 19, 2010 4:32 PM Subject: Re: accessible diary software There are a couple of things you have to do to get this to work. First, you have to put .LOG in all caps as the first line of your file. You must have the period before the log in all caps. Second, when it was first mentioned, this line was within quotes. The quotes must not be there in order for it to work. Third, you must re open the text file in order for the time and date to appear at the end of the file. It won't happen the first time the file is opened. Hope this helps.
