Hi All

So I've been trying to export my transactions to send to my accountant 
to prepare financial statements. I've used the General Ledger report 
(Assets and Liabilities-> General Ledger report) of GnuCash 2.6.10 on 
Windows.

I then save the output to html and open in Excel. Mostly this works. 
However, with a particular account (of type Liability), it seems the 
debits and credits are swapped in the report.

The following link is to a folder with screenshots showing the account 
register and the report. You will observe that the figures that are in 
the credit column in the account register show up in the debit column of 
the report and vice versa.

Has anyone else had this problem?

Any advice will be most welcome

many thanks
