Hi John,
let me rephrase my last mail; you seem to have missed what I was intending to
say....
I noticed yesterday that "select children" in the transaction report didn't
seem to work as i remembered. maybe it has been broken or changed. I haven't
had time to investigate the new behaviour yet.
You seem to have an issue with getting the accounts you want to select in the
same report (but different GC version)
I made sure that the accounts I wanted were selected by manually expanding the
tree in the accounts selection dialogue, and doing a "select all" to get round
the child accounts not selecting... maybe that would work for you too, maybe
not?
cheers,
Maf.
