delete file names

[David T.]

Hi Joe,

Welcome. Your problem is one that has cropped up a number of times over the years. 

The entries in the file list are not actually the files--which you deleted in the operating system (presumably Windows). Those entries are just a list of recently-opened files--like the list of recent files you would see in Microsoft Word or Excel. The fact that you are getting "File Not Found" errors confirms that you have deleted the files.

If seeing the list disturbs you, take a look at the thread listed in http://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-user/2011-October/041767.html

Subject: delete file names
 

Hi;
I am a new user of Gnucash and have a problem.
 
I set up some dummy accounts to feel my way around the system and now I want to delete them,but can not.
I deleted the files  thru the system(c directory),but the names(file not found)  still appear in the Gnucash file list.
What is the proper way to address this? 
......thanks     ...... joe
