Now when I run it this year for the period 1/1/2011 to 12/31/2011, the totals include all the items from previous years, i.e., 2010.  I haven't closed my books at the end of the year, and it appears that the trial balance depends on closed books?  Or am I doing something wrong.  I can't find any option that adjusts the balance to only include the report period transactions.
