John,

That's interesting. I don't need to look at pictures so I ignored the

True. I do these each month for my accountant but didn't think of the Income
Statement/P&L for this one account. My mistake.

This is what I thoght I did. All transactions are there but the account
summary is for the entire database table, not just the selected date range.
