On top right of the post I linked to, there's a link to the original thread.

Good question. Kovid said this a couple of times in this forum, but I can't remember, and the last time I searched I couldn't find it.

Just create a date column, using the format you prefer. I use dd-MM-yyyy hh:mm.

Then add a new row (plus sign), and select such column by double clicking the first row field; then the Settings field on the right side of the first row field will be enabled and you can open the Events Setting.

Do you have a copy of an ebook before the change? Maybe in a backup location?
If yes, get both books and do a compare on them and see what changed.
Calibre can do the compare.

If you don't, then seriously consider a backup routine.
