Thanks again, David, for your guidance. Obviously I had previously made
one or some mistakes, so when I tried to follow the advice in your mail
down here, it did not work.

But now I am happy.

I uninstalled GnuCash, cleaned my computer from all  remaining GnuCash
rest pieces, made a new installation, and followed all the steps in your
mail down here, and everything showed up as you had written.

A big THANKS. But I need further guidance - please.

WHAT NEXT?

Norbert
