Comment 8 for bug 1093139

I AGREE WITH: frankster (wtfrank) wrote on 2013-02-17: #7

It doesn't import the dates in the csv file provided by my bank. If it is only designed to import dates that use a specific separator then this is a bug with the specification, rather than the implementation. Either way, it is a reasonable user expectation that the programme will import a csv file provided by a bank without having to edit the file by hand. So its not appropriate to mark this bug as invalid.

I TOO AM HAVING A PROBLEM WITH GNUCASH DATES AND CSV IMPORTS. I tried MM/DD/YY, and MM/DD/YYYY and MM-DD-YYYY

SUGGEST: You earn your priviledge to make jokes by offering something constructive (like a solution) alongside your efforts to be funny. (Otherwise people see you as just another wiseguy.)
Here is an original SHULTZIE that you can add to your repetoir (Use it when you bomb)

RE: SOLUTIONS: Has anyone found a date format that works?
At this point I don't care if I have to fix it by hand (though I think the community should consider this problem is a bug).
