I'm new to orgmode and emacs.
I have downloaded emacs 23.3 for XP and trying to use orgmode that
comes bundled with this version of emacs.
I'm following this tutorial:
http://orgmode.org/worg/org-tutorials/orgtutorial_dto.html
When I mark a project as "Done" it doesn't show the "CLOSED" and date
and time-stamp as described in the tutorial. It just puts the "DONE"
in front of the task.
My _emacs file is under the "C:\Documents and Settings\user_name"
directory and it only has the following:
(require 'org-install)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.org$" . org-mode))
(define-key global-map "\C-cl" 'org-store-link)
(define-key global-map "\C-ca" 'org-agenda)
(setq org-log-done t)
I have put emacs under C:\ drive and all the "org" files are under the
C:\emacs-23.3-bin-i386\emacs-23.3\lisp\org directory.
Could someone please tell me how to get the "CLOSED" and time and date
stamp for items that are marked as done?
Thanks.

I don't see t as a valid value for org-log-done in the customization
menu or docstring and I am not sure how it is interpreted.
Have you tried
M-x customize-variable RET org-log-done RET
and choose one of the values that is offered in the menu.
,----[ C-h v org-log-done RET ]
| org-log-done is a variable defined in `org.el'.
| Its value is note
| Original value was nil
|
| Documentation:
| Information to record when a task moves to the DONE state.
|
| Possible values are:
|
| nil Don't add anything, just change the keyword
| time Add a time stamp to the task
| note Prompt for a note and add it with template `org-log-note-headings'
|
| This option can also be set with on a per-file-basis with
|
| #+STARTUP: nologdone
| #+STARTUP: logdone
| #+STARTUP: lognotedone
|
| You can have local logging settings for a subtree by setting the LOGGING
| property to one or more of these keywords.
|
| You can customize this variable.
