Like Ian, I have several reports that are based on the same generic
report but customized in one way or another that is hard to duplicate,
so I have given them appropriate names.  Also, like Ian, when I add new
accounts or go to a new year some of them need to be updated so they get
a rev number in the name.  If the old ones won't be used again, I might
delete them.  I would hate to lose the custom report feature. 

In fact, I would like an easy way to print out the report settings
without needing to search for the configuration files and copy or print
the one I want.
