Thanks - I'm really looking forward to it. I think I solved my immediate 
problem by exporting the cash flow report to html and opening it in Gnumeric. 
That lets me do some basic budgeting based on past history and my account 
types. I'm amazed at what a difference there is in opening HTML tables 
between OOo and Gnumeric.
