How to Enter Date and Time Quickly in Spreadsheet

Here today I summarize all the ways to input date in the Kingsoft spreadsheet, either quick ways, the normal ways or the advanced ways. I'll explain them in details as following:

Enter date directly and fast

A.Use the keyboard shortcuts:
Ctrl+; for current date
Ctrl+' for current time
enter date and time
B.Enter in the cells directly
3/25/2013 or 3-25-2013

Enter other types of date

Use Ctrl+1 to open the Format Cells, choose Custom and enter the format you want in the Type, for example m"."d"."yyyy;@, then you can enter 3.25.2013 in the cell.
enter date and time

Set the date format

Like you did as above, you can set the date format in the Date option by opening the Format Cells.
enter date and time

Use formula to enter date

Besides the above ways to enter date in spreadsheet, you can also use formula to achieve this, and in this way you can real-time update the date.
Formula=today( )
Formula=now( )
enter date and time
And don't forget to use F9 to refresh it!
