I'm not making much progress... I see I got some replies to my manual entry issues but now unable to investigate further... see attached screen-prints.

 I'll bet I'm doing something dumb... but even with date drop-down menu, I am unable to insert any date before 11Jan. See attached.

 Hi Trevor,

What exactly is it doing to prevent you from entering past dates? I enter them all the time. You do have to enter the / dividers. Like instead of 11418 you would have to enter 1/14/18 to get the date to come out right.

I've been following the user group for years but still not started the move from 20yrs of MSmoney... all looks too hard with an MSM file with records back to 1997.
I thought I could test the water with a new business and associated bank account that started in 2016.I've been managing this with a spreadsheet as very few transactions.
So I set up a business set of accounts and tried entering manually, the historic records... I'm immediately stumped. It does not let me enter past dates. Clearly I'm going about this in the wrong way.Advice appreciated.Trevor
