I didn't see a replay to this question. Sorry I'm so late - I'm cleaning 
up my mail backlog.

I don't think the filebrowser in gnucash is capable of browsing server 
shares as you can in Windows Explorer (\\servername\share\bla).

What you can do is assign a drive letter to the share using Windows 
Explorer. Then you can open that drive letter in the gnucash file 
browser.
