You could transform your entries into the ELOG file format (either XML or CSV) and then use the import function. That would upload the correct dates
from your entries.
If you use the "Orig Date" trick you've proposed, you'll see that datetime fields are stored as seconds of the epoch (since |

Hi David,
correct. And in addition you will need to convert "Orig Date" from seconds-of-the-epoch into a properly formated date string (see example
below from Stefan) ... |

If you define a field as "datetime" then you'll get the standard ELOG input field for datetime. It will be stored as seconds of the epoch
(seconds since 1.1.1970).

Hi Stefan,
I've just tried to read the $text with subst into another field and failed.
It looks like $text is only available for the execution of shell scripts in the "execute new|edit|delete = <script>" command. |

While the input widget of text attributes is a single line, they can easily be multi-line in the display - when you use HTML at least.
And of course the user can parse the text field and generate a single line, if he wants to.
If you leave it to me, I'll create wonderful applications to that feature :-) |

Hi Stefan,
no problem: if I just strip all newlines from the $text field (in HTML you use <br> anyway, the newline has no function apart from whitespace),
and my multiline attribute is fine to go. |

If you would post a minimal config file where the problem occurs, then we could look what the problem is.
