Date & Time Stamp Microsoft To Do Notes on Task

It would be really useful if there was a keyboard shortcut for entering a date and time stamp in a task within Microsoft To Do.  marcusash

    1. Install AutoHotKey.
    2. Load MyScript.ahk that is included with it (by double clicking). Unless it's already loaded (you should have a green icon with an "H" in your notification tray)
    3. Copy the script from my reply
    4. Right-click on the green "H" icon in your tray and select "Edit this script". It will open MyScript.ahk in Notepad.
    5. Paste the script to the bottom of the file and save.
    6. Right-click on the green "H" icon again and select "Reload this script".
    7. Try typing "qqdt" followed by space in Notepad (or any other app) & see if it works. 
    8. Add a shortcut to "MyScript.ahk" to StartUp.
