Thanks for your responses. To David Carlson: I have taken advantage of the GNC feature that allows me to save the format for the CSV files. I have one for each institution that I import from and haven't changed them, so I don't think it is a date format problem. Also, thanks for the info on the nightly builds. I suspected they are work in progress.
To David H.: GNC 4.1 works fine for me, and as you advise I will stick with that until the next release.. I often try the nightly builds as I sometimes find changes that are useful to me. Just thought I should mention that I had the problem with the more recent ones. To John Ralls: I will add it to the bug reports in case it may turn out to be helpful to the developers.
