I love the simplicity of the software, but seem to have problems entering dates. For example, I entered variations of December 20, 2008 and keep getting the warning pop-up box. To me it does not appear to be self explanatory.
I am a fairly new user and appreciate that there is probably a simple answer.
Is there a manual?

After some testing, the american style dates do seem to not work in version 2.500. It must have been broken in a recent release, I will find and fix this.
Entering "20 Dec 2008", "20/12/2008", "20 12 2008" or "20 December 2008" will work for the time being.
Prepending the date with "about", "abt", "circa", "c" is working. For example "about 20 Dec 2008".
No Manual at the moment but i'm working on a pdf. There is a "missing Manual" section on the forum which denotes the shortcut keys.

Exported dated incorrect
I just found a way to correct the dates on the forum, but it doesn't work the way it indicated. It gives you a choice to convert it to DD/MM/YYYY or MM/DD/YYYY. I highlighted the date and chose to convert the date to the American date, but it converts it to the European date. I have tried it 4 times and all 4 times the date 0001 has been converted to DD/MM/YYYY.
What say you? Thanks
