If you right-click anywhere in the register view you will get a pop-up
that gives you a choice to filter the view in several ways including
selecting your choice of date range.  Then you can run a register report
that includes only those visible transactions.  That report is at the
bottom of the report list and it is called Account Report.

Have fun.
