i have not got the loan druid to completely work for me yet,
but the problem you mention is solved by upgrading to the latest
version of gnucash
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=119001


-------------------------
i am so far just lurking,
but after running the druid on my loan,
when i go to the "Edit scheduled transaction" screen,
when i try to click OK,
i get a message box that says --
"
The Scheduled Transaction Editor cannott automatically
balance this transaction.  Should it still be entered ?
"

i am waiting till the next time the scheduled loan transaction
comes up to see what happens, as i dont understand what the above
mentioned message box means.

hope this helps

ps. 

i just switched from quicken also,
i did not import any data,
i just started over.
quicken was the last windows holdout for me
