[GNC] Help Find Feature

[Adrien Monteleone]

Let’s say you want to delete transactions between AccountA and Expense:E,

Are there any transactions in Expense:E between it and some other account besides AccountA?

If no, then just delete the entire account Expense:E, GnuCash will offer to move the transactions, but in this case you want to decline. That should save you lots of time.

For those expense accounts that *do* involve *any* account, other than AccountA, then you’ll have to do them one-by-one, from a Find done from AccountA.

Regards,
Adrien
