This bug should be corrected in the new version. To check you can compile the
development version that you find on git?

To compile grisbi:

First get the sources of grisbi. open a console and enter the following command:

git clone git://grisbi.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/grisbi/grisbi [^]

Then enter the commands below:

cd grisbi
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
sudo make install

/usr/local/bin/grisbi

before you must install git and the following libraries :

libglib2.0-dev, libgtk2.0-dev, gettext, intltool, libxml2-dev openssl-dev,
libofx-dev

i did everything as per your note, bug still there.

i also tried double-clicking the date, the calendar pops up, i selected
september 7, 2010; the correct date (september  7, 2010) is shown but the field
is in red color, when i click "OK", dialog box appear with the error message:
"Invalid date Tuesday, 07 September, 2010".

btw, archive is not working due to date problem with the same error message
"Invalid date Tuesday, 07 September, 2010"

my 2 cents: is the date picker field trying to be "intelligent and smart" and
trying to parse the data entered? can you get rid of the "intelligence" or at
least provide a date format option in Preferences?

is there a date checking routine that is generating the above error message?

not being able to put in the proper date makes grisbi unusable, accounting with
wrong dates is not accounting.

thanks.
