Thanks!  Especially good to get the alert about issues with GnuCashPortable.

Based on information provided by the PortableApps website  regarding GnuCash
<https://portableapps.com/support/gnucash_portable>   there are some known
issues.  This includes some unintended consequences when running
GnuCashPortable on a system that has GnuCash installed (locally) on it.  It
seems that there are a few things that GnuCash can do which involve a need
for registry entries which can be confused when multiple instances of
GnuCash are operated on the same system.  This is good to know about but it
looks like they pertain to features that I don't use.  However, I will make
a point of removing the locally installed version once I'm confident about
having made a successful transition.

It does seem like there is a good chance that a lot, if not most, of the
people using GnuCashPortable have installed a local copy on some computer. 
Therefore, this could present a fairly widespread problem for users of
GnuCashPortable.
