David,

Thanks. I honestly don’t know what the problem is here; I am trying to load Phil L.’s std budget report, which he provided several years ago and also just recently. I have attempted to load both the earlier one (named psl-budget.scm) and the more recent one (ytd-budget.scm) without success. Phil has clearly got it running on his machine, using the same config.user mumbo-jumbo, so I have to assume that the report is correctly-formed. However, I and at least one other user on the list has been unable to get the report to appear on the menus. I clearly haven’t been making the correct sacrifices to the Scheme gods…
