Date shortcut keys
Previously, you could use several shortcut keys to specify particular, “named” days (e.g., Today, Yesterday, and so forth) in date fields throughout Counterpoint. In this version, a number of date shortcut keys are supported, allowing you to quickly specify the corresponding values.
The following table lists all of the available date shortcut keys, which are case-sensitive:
