Hi all,

Is there some easy way to quickly select an Account for a Transaction 
Report?  When I select Reports -> Transaction Report, it will say "No 
accounts selected"; and there's a link to "Edit report options".  So in 
the Options window, I select the "Accounts" tab.  And I'll be able to 
select from my list of over 250 accounts.  But only the first 2 or 3 of 
all those 250 accounts are visible in that dialog box.  I have to 
manually scroll down thru that long 250-accounts list to get to the 1 
sub-account that I'm actually interested in.

For this example here, let's say it's Expenses:Food:Groceries.  Is there 
an easy way to select just that 1 Groceries sub-account for a report 
without having to manually scroll down thru all those 250 accounts that 
I'm not interested in?

FYI, I tried manually typing "Expenses:Food" to see if that would get me 
close; but that doesn't work.

Tom
