General Preferences - Display Dialog

This dialog is available from the Options / General Preferences... menu command.

This dialog page allows you to customize display related settings. These preferences are memorized from session to session. They include:

Date Format	Choose either the MM/DD/YY or DD/MM/YY format for displaying dates. The date format used for entering dates is controlled by your windows preferences (Control Panel/Regional Settings/Date).
Number Format	Specify the delimiters to use when displaying and entering numbers. One setting uses the comma to separate groups of 3 digits, and the period for the decimal point (e.g. 1,000.00). The alternate setting uses the period to separate groups of 3 digits, and the comma for the decimal point (e.g. 1.000,00).
Share Digits	Number of significant digits past the decimal point to display when showing share values. Used for controlling the display in the main graphs window and the data register. Acceptable values range from 0 to 6.
Price Digits	Same as 'share digits', but used to control the display of prices.
Cents in Dollar Values	Toggle on/off cents when displaying values.
Confirmation Notices	When turned on you will receive confirmation notices (message boxes) after each recorded entry. To speed up data entry you may turn off this feature, thus bypassing the message boxes.
Investment Description	Specify how investments should be labeled. Controls the display in dialogs, graph legends, the Data Register, and the investment column of reports listing by investment.
