Thank you for the prompt response.  A clarification please, what does "AFAIK" stand for and I also use Libre Office these days, after using Open Office and Quattro Pro for years, never did use Excel.


Thank You,
Gyle McCollam

Gyle,
Export it as Excel, load it up in Excel and export it from there as CSV. GnuCash
has always read Excel's CSV exports AFAIK (I use Libre Ofiice these days and it
certainly works with LO).

You should also be able to set the date format in the CSV import dialog. It will
likely default to the format specified for your locale but you can override that
and store the format settings for future use.
