Chapter 6. Entering Dates

Entering Dates

There are a number of ways that you can enter dates where required. The easiest method is to use the Pop Up calendar that is activated by double clicking on the date text/box. The calendar will not built to work on a few functions. Examples of manually entering a date using the 12th August 2002 are:

  1. 12 8
  2. 12 Aug

Note!! To enter a date in the previous or next calendar year you must enter the year, for example, 12 8 1 or 12 8 3. Be careful when entering the next years date close to the end of the current year. You must enter the year or it will default to the current year. This does not apply if you are using the Pop Up calendar.
