[GNC] Revising an old Gnucash file

Tom,

You can make accounts hidden. Edit the account in the Account tab and select the
hidden button in the dialogue. You can always then use the right click in the
Accounts tab, select Find Account and unhide them in future. If you delete an
account you can choose another account for any splits to the deleted account to
be redirected to.
