Solution to not entering the year is three columns to combine, or displacing
columns in the spreadsheet to run a math, to copy and paste as data in same
column take me longer than typing the date. Your skills may be far superior to
mine. If the page is long enough say 4 pages plus, maybe for me, still for me
pretty cumbersome.  Is this something you could teach easily to a middle age
secretary?  Just think about the facial expressions after you leave..

What if the spreadsheet could remember the last year typed, last month, maybe
even last day, I have many days with many transactions.
