Selected the transaction you labelled as troublesome and noted that I had selected  <postpone> and that the date associated was 1969. ( I don’t know where that came from.) In that SX screen I changed options and selected <to create> and then <ok>.  Lo and behold I could now get into SX editor and no transaction for 1969 was created. Same thing happens if I say <ignore>.  Calendar editor window opens as expected. When I go to the troublesome transaction in the now open editor then go to <toolbar><scheduled> and try and delete the offending transaction Gnwucash crashes.  At this point I have transaction editor(SX) now available but I cannot delete the original  transaction and it does not have the <postpone> label. I do get a new crash report after I try to delete it and Gnucash crashes.

Whatever happened I now can’t get rid of the transaction although the SX editor seems to be Ok. Doug is my younger brother.  He’ll be happy to know he is now a permanent part of my financial  records.

I’m not able to replicate the crash on delete, but deleting the SX also doesn’t mark the book dirty. Could you post the stack trace portion of the crash report? You can view it in /Applications/Utilities/Console.app; just find the bit that looks like

and paste it into an email. The example is from your earlier crash report.
