Glad you do, but I don't ;)

Your experiment suggests GnuCash hits a limit somewhere it shouldn't. Setting 
the Register defaults value to "0" should show all transactions, but in your 
case that fails with lots of transactions. I'd be interested in the actual 
number of transactions in your Cash account to get an estimate of where it 
goes wrong.

Thanks,
