3 dots instead of date in register

Ever since one of the updates in September, all of my investment accounts (and only the investment accounts) have some (not all) transactions with 3 dots in the date field. If I hover my mouse over them, the correct date shows. Once I move the mouse the 3 dots come back. I've tried editing the transaction, but the 3 dots still come back. Quicken Windows Deluxe R45.11. Any suggestions?

    Yes the first dates display.  There's a single DAY digit.  The 3dot transactions have a 2 digit days and the column isn't wide enough.

    Column width got reduced?  Grab the line in the to the right of the Date column heading and drag it to the right.  Does that resolve things?  If not, please post a screenshot of what you see.

    No. Haven't changed anything. Started happening in Sept. Where's the option to add a screenshot here?

    Try MontanaKarl's suggestion before bothering with the screenshot.  "3 Dots" in any Q column indicates that the column is too narrow to display the contents.

    We don't need a screen shot. Widening the Date column is the right answer.

    Thank you all, that does seem to have worked. What through me was that the full date does show in some transaction as in my screenshot.
