Now, with the "name.gnucash" file I can open it on the other machine and I see all accounts correctly displayed but when I try the Reports / Income&  Expenses / Trial Balance, all I get is a blank page.  If I do the same thing with a different company (file)that was produced on this new computer, it works.
Hi Normand,

This sounds suspiciously like bug 645273 in the GnuCash bug database 
[1]. Most people affected by this bug were able to fix it based on a 
suggestion in comment 40:

- Click on Start Button
- click on Control Panel
- Select Network and Internet (view by category)
- Click on Internet Options
- Select the Programs Tab
- At the bottom of the tab, select Set Progams
- Select the bottom option "set program access and computer defaults"
- YOu are then asked to chose a configuration:
->  I then extended the "Custom configuration" section and clicked on the radio
button to make Internet Explorer the default browser=>  didn't work / I finally
chose to use the Windows Configuration =>  Success


For more information, please check the bug report.

Does this work for you also ?

Geert
