In a related issue:
It would seem to be a good idea to have the preferences dialog mirror the SX 
creation Options section.

See screenshot http://www.thewunders.org/files/pics/SX-prefs.jpg

There should be a preference for automatically creating the transaction, and 
separate preferences for days in advance to create a transaction, and days in 
advance to remind about a transaction.

So the SX preferences screen should look something like:
Since Last Run dialog:
[ ] Run when data file opened

Transaction editor defaults:
[ ] Create automatically
   [ ] Notify me when created (inactive if Create automaticallly is unchecked)

[ ] Create [    ] days in advance
[ ] Remind [    ] days in advance

Tim
