Oh, yeah, this isn't in 1.8.  It's a 2.0 feature.  Sorry, I just
assume that everyone has updated to 2.0 at this point.

0 means "don't delete", so gnucash is doing what you told it to do.

No, it means you haven't saved any reports.  Just remember that
you MUST manually change the report name before you save it or gnucash
will crash the next time you start.
