    Could you be more specific about what you are trying to do and where you are doing this in the program?

    I am in “Show Transaction Details.” I would like to know the date that I entered the transaction as opposed to the date of the transaction.

    I am afraid it is not possible to change the format of the information in the “Show Transaction Details.” window.

    I don’t mind performing the calculation by hand. I just want to know the date on which I entered (a then future) transaction.

    dtentered is in milliseconds since the epoch. Where the epoch is midnight January first 1970. This is sometimes referred to as a "Unix Time Stamp". If you want to convert to a human readable date you can do so here:
