Cindy, I have no idea when this will be published by LUG, as some I posted this morning (over 6 hours ago) still haven't arrived!
However, from your description you are trying to enter it from the wrong place. After you click the Chronology tab you then need to click the Options button on the right and at the bottom of the screen you will see a bar for entering a timeline.
