That is surprising. It is possible that some of the translated versions have 'type="guid"' instead of 'type="new"'. And indeed a quick grep shows this is the case. E.g.: grep 'act:id' accounts/de_DE/*-xea | grep -v 'type="new" We should fix that, and all the others. -derek -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH warl...@mit.edu PGP key available _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
