?? it DOES work, type this in a NEW file:
CODE
Setactivewindow Document - WordPad //For wordpad ofc, it will get wordpad to be the active window (must b opened)
delay 200
Keys {day}
keys /
keys {month}
keys /
keys {year}
you should have (for this date) 26/2/2009
and another one EVEN BETTER 
CODE
Setactivewindow Document - WordPad
delay 1000
keys {now} //this will type the date, AND the time;)
This will be shown as: 02-26-2009 15:02:41:468
