Since I am running only version 3.7 in both linux and win7, I can safely 
delete .gnucash entirely, right?

And in other news - I got my reports back :)  Thank the computer gods 
for backups and redundancies.

However, since I dual boot, on the windows side, all the reports and aqbanking info is still there!  The data file is fine, happily. What do I need to copy over from where in win7 to where  in the linux file system to get my linux side working again? - Elmar
