I cannot select today as date

[Luiz Carlos da Costa Junior]

Hi John,

First of all, thank you for your attention.

Answering your questions:
I am using Windows 7 Professional (64-bits).
I tried the dates you suggested and it works for tomorrow and yesterday but
it doesn't work for 18 Oct 2009 and 16 Oct 2011 (it chooses the day before
automatically).
If I use the + / - keys, it select the date I want but when I press <enter>
it changes automatically to the day before.

I also tried gnucash 2.3.15 and change the date format (as suggested in
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=598788) but the problem persists.

What can I do then?

Regards,
LC
