Randy:"You would thing gnucash would build in a
backup/export/import function."It does have a backup function: every time it saves the data, it renames the old one with the date and time. They are still in the data folder. If I remember correctly, GC saves these for 30 days, unless you changed it Yes, I would like to see export/import functions that don't rely on some special format.
Bruce Preach the Gospel wherever you go. If necessary, use words.

If you have been having issues with notes in OFX imports, there were a
couple of bugs in that area that were just fixed for release 3.6. They
should already be in the Windows nightly builds. Try OFX again when you
have the updates.

In Windows <Alt-A, J> does jump to the account register window for
whichever split line the curser is sitting on, even in the Journal view.
Thanks again.

The underlines are visible without my pressing any keys. (This is GC
2.6.19 on Windows 7.)
Alt+A, J works for me just as David says.

Yes, the Gtk+ version which changed this was implemented for 3.0.

Subject: [GNC] I just don't understand reconciliation
Message-ID: <68d3fc61-07fb-32d1-f158-0d2a86e58b78 at zoho.com>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8"
Hi All,
I am confused to the point of tears.
I created a dummy account: "bozo" and "Bozo Expense".
Initial balance was $100.00 (over payment). Then I added some charges
and another payment.
I "pretend" that the 7.00 and 150.00 do not show up on my statement, so
I leave
them at "n". The rest I put at "c".
Then I hit "reconcile" and tell it the ending "statement date" is
06/12/2019.
It correctly fills in the ending balance sans the 150.00, which is
after the
statement date.
Everything good so far. The box in the lower right is correct. the 7
and 150
are not "R" checked off, which is the way I want it. This simulates
things not
on the statement yet.
-135 is what my pretend bank statement would show. And is the ending
balance
of -128 would be "IF" the 7 had passed. And the difference is indeed
the 7 that did
not pass. So far I understand.
Now I press "reconcile" and it inserts a weird entry into the register:
AND ROYALLY SCREWS UP MY real ending BALANCE!
1) Why did it screw up my balance !!!!????
2) Why in the reconcile windows does it not pick up my "n" and "c"
entries,
3) why after reconciling do my "n" and "c" entries not change?
I am so freaking confused!!!!
Someone please rescue me!
Many thanks,
-T
