I am trying to add a date stamp followed by Last Name, First Name
followed by a text. Such as:

::ABC:: 

FormatTime, ClipBoard,, dd-MMM-yyyy 'Last Name, First Name;'

ClipSaved := ClipboardAll 

Clipboard =  

(



Text 

) 

Send ^v 

sleep 100 

Clipboard := ClipSaved 

ClipSaved = 

return

But it doesn't work. I am using this version because I need it to be
reliable/not cut the text as it has happened before with:

::ABC::

Clipboard =   

FormatTime, ClipBoard,, dd-MMM-yyyy'; Last Name, First Name; '

SendInput, %ClipBoard%

(



Text

)

Return

Any ideas?

::ABC:: 

ClipSaved := ClipboardAll  ; save the entire clipboard to the variable ClipSaved

Clipboard := ""   ; empty the clipboard

; https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/_EscapeChar.htm#Escape_Sequences

; ";" must be escaped 

; quote '  must be enclosed in quotes 

FormatTime, ClipBoard,, dd-MMM-yyyy '''''Last Name, First Name`;'''''

TextToAppend =   ; append this text to the clipboard

(



Text 

)

clipboard = %clipboard%%TextToAppend%

Send ^v

sleep 100 

Clipboard := ClipSaved  ; restore original clipboard

ClipSaved := ""  ; free the memory

return

Are firstname and lastname variables?

If so, just use:

SendInput, % ClipBoard " " firstName " " lastName
