I might be misunderstanding this issue (what you meant by ALL data).

But if you really meant all, both transactions AND the CoA (it was a 
TEST set of books) it would have been easy to "reset" it to the state 
befroe you had entered anything. You would have simply deleted the file 
where you had saved the data.

Data is not the program, the program is not the data, repeat.
