Reminder --- you do NOT have to use the "opening balance" shortcut when 
adding new accounts. You can instead create the new account with zero 
balance and then immediately enter a transaction between that account 
(those accounts) and equity. The point is that if this old 
fashioned/traditional way to open an account works (for some complicated 
situation) but you are having problems with the gnucash provided 
"shortcut", don't waste a lot of time trying to get the shortcut to work.
