Hi,

I am trying to reconcile accounts that have got way behind. They are 
stock (options) trades that might have been entered before I understood 
how trading accounts should be setup.

When I view the register for the account, I notice some of the records 
display a box with a square in it, in the top left corner of both the 
deposit and the Withdrawal field. When I tab through the deposit and the 
withdrawal fields as the focus leaves the withdrawal field, a dialog 
pops saying the transaction needs to be rebalanced.

The transaction split looks like this. You can see the box with a cross 
in it

As I don't know what needs to be balanced I click on "Let GnuCash add an 
adjusting split", and I click <Rebalance>.

The transaction split, then looks like this.

As I move onto the next transaction, and follow the exact same steps, 
after clicking on <Rebalance>, there is a pause of 1 to 2 seconds, 
following which GnuCash silently crashes.

When I reopen GnuCash I am presented with cannot get a lock popup

I can delete the file 2024 Accounts.gnucash.LCK to restart GnuCash.

Nothing has been changed of course, and there was no time to save 
anything. Some times Even the first try ends abnormally.

Any ideas, anyone, Bueller… anyone?
