You can do and "export" which will create a new .xml chart of accounts (same 
as your current, but with zero balences). Then use this new file, and strip 
out the <> markings, change to .txt.  Not perfect but will work.

I have to defer to someone else on this. There is a sql backend in available, 
but is being worked on to improve is abilities. Migrating from the .xml to 
sql ?? I don't know how.

In the new 1.8.7 version, there is a .log replay option which should be a big 
help if you forget to save after making recent changes.
