If you use Xy4 or XyWrite for Windows, take a look at a SmartSet
routine called LOG http://users.datarealm.com/ammaze/xy/LOG.ZIP. It
does exactly what you describe, except for the closing date and time
stamp, which is an easy matter to add. (If you're unsure how, write
me privately and I'll lend a hand.)

Another SmartSet routine, called DATETIME
http://users.datarealm.com/ammaze/xy/DATETIME.ZIP, produces a more
elaborate stamp, which includes the day of the week.

Individual SmartSet routines or the complete package can be
downloaded from XyWWWeb http://users.datarealm.com/xywwweb/.
