After uninstalling everything I could from the command line and 
reinstalling, GNC 5.0 will now display reports in a tab, as it should.  
It still has some date handling issues that I need to research further 
after tax season.

And I did notice that the "about" screen is different after 
removing/reinstalling version 5.0, with exception to the version 
numbers.  This install displays the "GNC_*:  /'install path'" for DATA, 
CONF, etc.  The prior install did not show these.

At the moment it looks like the problem is solved.
