Entering dates

Dates must normally be entered in the format DD.MM.YY, i.e. 01.10.92 for the 1st October 1992. However the computer can also determine the date required from the following alternative methods:

t

Today's date

+d

Today's date plus 'd' number of days

-d

Today's date minus 'd' number of days

d

Where 'd' is a number between 1 and 31. The 'd'th day of the current month and year.

d.m

As above except the 'd'th day of the 'm'th month of the current year.

m.y

As above except use the 'm'th month or the 'y'th year and the current day.
