How do I.... > Change the date of an entry

There are several ways to change the date of an entry. Most users will probably want to change the date of an individual entry. This is usually accomplished from the Entry Tab. The date control in the entry toolbar can be modified by either directly typing in a desired date, or by using the drop down calendar to visually select a date.

 

If you want to change multiple entries to the same date, then the Custom Tab is the place to do it. From there, you can select the entries you wish to modify, right click, and choose the "Date..." menu item.

 

Another way to change the date of entries is to drag and drop them from either the DateNav list or the Custom list directly onto a date on the DateNav calendar. Just change the calendar so that it is set to the month the desired date is on, select one or several entries from the list (multiple only from custom list) and drag them over to a particular date on the calendar. The entries will automatically be updated with the new date.

 

ss_noteNote: Although DayNotez Desktop let you display 3 different dates for each entry ( Created On, Modified, Entry), only the entry date is modifiable. The Created On date always reflects when the entry was originally created, and the modified date is updated any time a change is made to the entry.
