John:
[adding the gnucash-user list back to the cc:]

I'm glad that solved it for you.

Please remember to cc the list on all replies. It helps others learn 
from what you found out, and lets the list pitch in to answer questions 
rather than putting the burden on individual participants.

Best regards,
