[GNC] Description Field

[John Ralls]

David should have mentioned that there is a second text field available called Notes and that you select View>Double Line to access it, and yet another, Memo, that's associated with each split in a transaction; click the Split button in the toolbar or choose auto split or journal view in the View menu to access those.

All of those names are indeed hard-coded.

Regards,
John Ralls
