Thanks for pointing those out to me, but I think that the fact
(already mentioned elsewhere in this thread) that the content of the
special column 'Af/Bij' determines whether the amount has to be
treated as a withdrawal or deposit will make it at least somewhat of a
challenge to convert using these tools.

And I must admit that Im more of a 'stick to what you know' kinda guy.
;)

So I guess that for now I will leave GnuCash alone for the time being
and stick to my current spreadsheet based solution, and in time will
check back to see if and what kind of progress GnuCash has made in
this area.
