Hi Rich,

AFAIK, it is just historical.  GC shipped with a report called "P&L" but some 
people said "That's an income Statement", so it was renamed.  Then there were 
howls of "Where's the P&L report gone" so the same report was put back in but 
with 2 names..... yes, they should be identical output.

(Of course, it may be that the Income Statement was the original name, and P&L 
was the rename. Truly can't remember, it was years ago)

HTH,
Maf.
