Problem creating Stocks in gnucash

[Rob Cussons]

Thanks David, I think something must have got corrupted as it just wasn't
operating normally. However, I noticed that version 2.6.4 is now available
and I've downloaded and installed and all works normally. Sorry, probably
should have tried that before posting.

Thanks for help!
