I use AutoCAD 2000. In the previous version I used, I was able to print a
date and some text along the far left side of the paper. How can I do that
in AutoCAD 2000? Thanks.

I lost the same function, the plot stamp feature in the print dialogue box
for each layout tab will have it, and it may even appear to set up but I
still don't get a plot stamp on my HP Designjet 600 :-( If the plotter is
an older HP then the XP drivers have lost some functionality unfortunately.

You can use the others advice or you could also use RTEXT (using DIESEL
strings) on your X-Reffed border
There is also a lisp routine to update attributes in a block placed where
you want it. look for it at Cadalyst.com 'plot stamp'
