2.) Please activate this date and time function in QTP!
3.) Small examples for inserting date and time using hotkeys!
Example-1:
List the last working days day in the next quarters as local date format
%d=0% date on today
%qlwd% Output for the last working day in
%LDF% as local date format
%addd+7% 7 day +
%qlwd% Output

Example-3:
Simple output of the last working day in this month and first working day in the next month as capital letters
%mfwd% First working day (Info: mfwd = month first work day) %mlwd% Last working day (Info: mlwd = month last work day)
The first working day of the month was %mfwd%%LDF% and the last day is %mlwd%%LDF%

%mld% Jump to the last day in this month
%wd:3% Jump to the next Wednesday (0 to 6 = Sun, Mon, ... Sat)

%C%= calendar
%LDF%= long date format
%T%= time input
%LTF%= long time format (13:45:00)
The next appointment is on%C%%LDF%at%T%%LTF%

%mld% Jump to the last day of this month
%addd+1% day + 1 (thus day 1 in the next month)
%mfwd% Jump to the first working day Mon-Fri in this month

5.) ... Why so much work with the auto hotkeys to insert time and date?
It is so that you can automate some things in MS Office or other programs, but the solution with QTP for Microsoft's Windows is program, browser, APP, ... and you can use them everywhere, especially the example with%C%is very popular to quickly insert a date without having to type in the day!
Your next appointment is on Monday, April 12, 2021 at 12:30
The solution is simple to backup the individual entries or export from Quick-Text-Paste The QuickTextPaste.ini is a hidden file in the working directory
With Quick-Text-Paste latest version, inserting a tab is extremely easy. Just use “%TAB%” as a placeholder for the tab character. This makes recognizing
With QuickTextPaste is easy to work with date, time, calendar week for example, for effective and time-saving use in Word, Excel or other text programs
First of all, thank you for this program. In the hour I've had it, it's already removed a few annoyances from my life :) Is there an AM/PM placeholder for timestamps that can be used separately from its inclusion in %LTF%? I'd like a timestamp that looks like this: [10:59 AM]. (Actually would most prefer [10:59 a.m.] but that's too picky :) )I have a shortcut set up that gives me this: [11:01:06 AM]. Any way to do this? Thanks! (Even if there isn't - still "thanks").?
I love QuickTextPaste. For my job, dates must be filled out as 13-NOV-2021 in exactly this format. All three letters of the month must be upper case.I am using %DD%-%MMM%-%YYYY%, but the 2nd and 3rd letters in the month are lower case like this: 13-Nov-2021. Is there a way to modify the %DD%-%MMM%-%YYYY% command to make all three letters uppercase?
I have been happily using QTP for a while and using the the date code of %MMM_UC%. I recently got a new computer and now have issues getting %MMM_UC% to work properly. I'm able to use %MMM% and other date code options successfully however %MMM_UC% will not work and the QTP returns the value of %MMM_UC%. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
