Customer list? Now how about tax tables

Thanks, I have version 1.8.12. I think Neil was talking about the same
kind of thing last week. For me QSF format and XSLT is another language
I don't know. I was thinking of setting up my accounts all over again
and a customer list would have saved me having to go through each
customer's file folder for the information.
I was having some trouble with invoicing and tax tables and it seemed
the best was to get over it was to start all over again. Since there is
no customer list report, maybe there is an easier fix for the tax table
problem. Here it is.
I set up two tax rates listed in my tax table, thinking I could chose
whichever was appropriate for my transaction when invoicing. Upon
reviewing my accounts I noticed that rather than applying just one tax
rate, gnucash applied all the tax entries from both tax tables as one
tax rate, resulting in over 20% sales tax on an item... I unposted the
invoices with the problem, deleted the items and re-entered them. The
program still assigned the 20+% tax for any item I listed as purchased
prior to the date that I changed the tax table. This was the case even
after I removed all the old tables and left only one table with an 8%
tax rate in the system. There was no other difference than the date of
the transaction between the problem invoices and those that were
correct. I figured the system had some kind of memory for transaction
dates and I just needed to start over. I just was hoping to reduce my
workload. I can't change the purchase dates because it would wreak havoc
with my Quarterly state tax reporting. Any ideas?
