How to get yearly account totals?

[Steve Juniper]

That's it! I should have tried everything before asking but wouldn't it
defuse questions if it said "Income and Expense Statement" instead of just
"Income Statement"? I will make a calendar note to lessent my chances of
having to ask the same question next year. Thank you!
