Data file too large

[Ian K]

In reality there is no way apart from all or nothing. I have been pondering
this issue for some time, and really would like some kind of archiving
function to delete old transactions, but this is not something the
developers are keen on.
I haven't done this yet, but my approach will be to start again with a new
file.
So File > Export > Export Accounts will create a new file will all existing
accounts set up but empty.
The run a Balance Sheet on all accounts at a certain date and manually
create Opening Balance transactions on every account.
I have about 250 accounts, but about 40 of them are closed so can be
deleted.

Not ideal as I won't be able to run reports over the time period that spans
both files, but I can't think of any other way...
