Hi,
I checked my 2.6.15 on my old computer and the C$ symbol is not there. I do
not remember doing anything to specifically set C$ for the budget. I wonder
why it is only in the right hand totals and not in all the budget items. I
did set it for my Chart of Accounts and that is also the case in 2.6.15.
