Report- show account total

[David T.]

A couple of options are open to you. 

1) You can keep the report open from session to session. This will ensure its availability in a moment's notice (although it can slow down the startup process).

2) You can edit the *Name* of the report to something unique, at which point it becomes possible to click the Add report button, and your report will be saved permanently. The downside with this is that the current state of the art in reports is such that your saved report parameters can't be edited and resaved--except by creating a new report. It is also not Simple to delete previously saved reports; you must edit the saved-reports file and manually remove the correct section that includes your report.

HTH,
David
