When entering more than one transaction in a session, new transactions default to the same date last used, so the existing shortcuts metioned in a previous comment often work. If it happens that you are editing multiple historical transactions, they are likely close together as well. If I had

William, Once you change the date in a register it will remain at that date until you change to another date. If you have to enter old transactions in many accounts, you could change the system date and restart GNC. That way "today's " date would be your system date. No changes need to be

"Go to a backup file" Why? You know you can change the date on a transaction after it has been entered, right? You can use the "+" and "-" keys to move up and down as many days as you want. The transactions are not permanently entered and unalterable. About 90% or more of the transactions I
