[GNC] Canadian Sales Tax Questions and/or "Canadian Version" of GnuCash

[David Cousens]

Patrick,

John missed this one. It is usually a good idea to uninstall a previous
version before installation of an upgrade. This does not affect your gnucash
data files or user preference files which are not removed in the uninstall
of the program. In some case after an upgrade user preference may be
relocated (v2.6.xx->3.x  for example) and sometimes customized reports etc
may need to be copied or the file renamed  (see
https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Configuration_Locations for detail). Sometimes
there are occasional changes to the data file format which also means you
cannot revert to a previous version. It is usually possible within the minor
series changes i.e. 2.4->3.5 but sometimes not possible to revert across
major series changes 2.6.19 ->3.8.
