[GNC] Printing Invoices

[Adrien Monteleone]

When you bring up the invoice report from the Reports menu, no invoice 
is selected, so this is a correct message.

The message *should* be giving you a link to click bringing up the 
General tab of Options, but if not, click the Options button on the 
toolbar (which should default to the General tab) and either enter the 
invoice number where indicated, or search for it with the Select button.

Once you click Apply or Close, your invoice will now appear.

This is because when running from the Reports menu, GnuCash has 
absolutely no idea which invoice you want.

 From other parts of the program, you are specifically telling it you 
want a report *for the already selected* invoice.

Regards,
Adrien
