Thanks Derek...yep I do it every time.

One other weird thing is that the style sheet for the fancy invoice no
longer appears since I created a custom invoice using the fancy invoice
style. Not sure if this is normal.

Still not working :>{
but thanks Derek




I believe you need to exit and restart GnuCash before it will recognize
changed .scm files. If nobody has yet suggested this it's worth a try, too.

Thanks for that Carsten,
But I must be missing something. I created a file "config.user.scm" in my
C:\Users\Quad\.gnucash folder.

I put in the following line directing to the file I wanted it to load:

  (load "C:\\Users\\Quad\\.gnucash\\invoice-au.eguile.scm")

And I still don't seem to get anything.

Also in the documentation it says:

"Alternatively, you can copy the report to the installed report directory.
Make sure you have included a module definition as shown above. In gnucash-2
3.x or higher, all *.scm files from the directory
guile-modules/gnucash/report/standard-reports/ will be loaded automatically.
This applies only to the standard-reports/ sub-directory, not to any of the
other directories with reports. Hence, the easiest way to have your report
available to gnucash is to copy your *.scm file into that directory. "

I've put reports into the report directory, but they don't seem to load
either.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Karen

Hi,

I know it is late for this thread, anyhow:

An overview for the location of the config.user file is found here:
http://wiki.gnucash
org/wiki/Custom_Reports#Load_the_report_from_a_user_account

Kind regards,
Carsten
