I am doing the books for my father , who now has accounts with AT&T. On
importing any ofx file of his, from different banks, where he pays AT&T
the "&" character causes the description field (Payee) to be truncated
at the & character. I know the import truncates at 32 characters on ofx
files but; not on special characters. All UTF-8 files with say Chinese
characters import correctly.
IE. AT&T DIRECTTV exists in the <NAME> field of the ofx file but; when
I import it I get AT not AT&T DIRECTTV.
To me it seems the importer is considering the & as a special character,
like in Perl, but doesn't know what to do with it.
Anyone else seeing this in GnuCash 2.6.19 for Windoze 10?
