[GNC] How can I make GnuCash store all dates in only 1 format?

[Mark Debian]

 Thanks for the explanation.
I just did a "save as" and now my dates are all in the new format.  Much easier to work with just one format for the dates.  Also the new format is recognised by the sqlite3 date function whereas the old format was not.

Thanks.

Derek,

You're right, a single save-as would work just as well.
