I loaded my sqlite3 file, changed a tax code assignment, closed
gnucash, opened it again and the change was stored and properly
reflected in the re-opened application. I then added a new code,
closed, re-opened, and again the change was properly reflected.

Since you first reported the problem, could you confirm that it is
really there on your system? If so send Phil the gnucash.trace file as
he asked.

Thanks,

Alex
