[GNC] GC4.10 on Win10 Crashing

[David T.]

I apologize if my response seemed testy. It's extremely frustrating to be working on a large data set with lots of complex transactions ("How exactly should the capital gains for a stock position with multiple purchase lots and an intervening split be tracked?"), finally work out how those complex transactions get recorded, enter them, go to save the result, only to have the program crash out. 

I will certainly try closing at least the one report I have open, as your idea that the report derives information from that reconciled account seems a reasonable possibility.
