Account balance 0 after QIF Import

[Brad McNeely]

That fixed that problem.  It imports but with some balances correct and others incorrect.  I'm going to wade through the archive messages (downloading them now) and see what I can find before I trouble you any further.  May be back in a few days if I can't fix it myself.  Thanks.

Regards,
Brad

This is an FAQ.<br>The answer is in the Archives.<br><br>In short, there is a bug in qif-file.scm -- you need to change th regex<br>that says \.\.\. to \\.\\.\\. <br><br>-derek<br><br>"Brad McNeely" <brad_mcneely at excite.com> writes:<br><br>> Derek,<br>> <br>>      I decided to bag the whole compile thing when it dawned on me that since I was using apt-get to install all of those required packages, maybe someone had already built gnucash 1.8.3 so I used apt-get to pull down and install the already built rpm for 1.8.3.  Now my problem of not being able to import because of split transactions is gone, but after I import my QIF file, the accounts show up with all of the transactions, but there are no dollar amounts in the transactions and the account balance is zero.  The only accounts to have a non-zero balance is my stocks which seemed to have come over OK.  I was importing from a Quicken 2001 QIF export.  By the way, thanks for all of your help.<br>> <br>> Regards,<br>> Brad<b
