Dear Derek, Attached please find output of svn diff re gnucash business invoice reports.
Sounds like you may be right about changing the options. When I get time I will attempt a test crash by reverting to old reports and opening a gnucash printable invoice, saving then closing gnucash, copying new onto old reports then restarting gnucash. Any hints on how to get useful log or debugging output here? In anticipation, why does it have to crash? Can this be fixed to allow a more graceful, user friendly failure?
