FAQ: Is there a complete list of keyboard shortcuts for Windows?

Jack Walsh

I've used Quicken for over 15 years, and have never seen a complete list of all of the Quicken for Windows keyboard shortcuts. Is such a list readily accessible?

Update: Date field keyboard shortcuts in Quicken for Windows

Assuming today's date is May 7th, 2020 and it is shown in the date field and you are using standard US - style dates (this may not work with other date formats) ...
• Type + advances the date by 1 day, 5/8/2020
• Type - subtracts 1 day from the date, 5/6/2020
• Type t resets the date to Today's date, 5/7/2020
• Typing 0501 gives 5/1/2020 (always type it with leading zeros for month and day numbers 01…09, no slashes)
• Typing 123019 gives 12/30/2019 (no slashes)
• Typing 12011999 gives 12/01/1999 (again, no slashes)
• m gives the first day of the month, 5/1/2020
• h gives the last day of the month, 5/31/2020
• y gives the 1st of January of the year, 1/1/2020
• r gives the 31st of December of the year, 12/31/2020
• w gives this week's Sunday, 5/3/2020
• k gives this week's Saturday, 5/9/2020
• typing the same letter again advances to the next / prior interval, e.g. "ww" = 4/26/2020 or "++" = 5/9/2020
• combine multiple keystrokes to get to the desired date, e.g., "m-" results in 4/30/2020 (date = 5/7, m = 5/1. - = 4/30)
