Many thanks for your experience.
What I am hoping to find is an accountant whereby we can share the
GnuCash file on Dropbox with them and then they can output the
information they need for our filings. That of course would require the
accountant to have GnuCash operating (on Mac or PC) and have some basic
understanding of how it works and how to set it up so that we can set up
the accounts together. That would leave me to enter the transactions on
to the books day by day, month on month and for the accountant to just
check over them and do the filing.
From what you are saying I probably need to make contact with a number
of accountants in my area and see if I can convince any of them to give
it a try.
Many thanks, John

John,
Without knowing your specific interests I'll offer my experiences. Over
the years I've had discussions with my accountant about switching to
linux.
The problem is their tax software. Not only does that run only in Windows
(and her IT person doesn't know how to use a virtual Windows machine for
it), but requires other specifics that severely limit her choices. Worse
still, here in Oregon the state's Dept. of Revenue insists that
accountants
use the department's software which is buggy and error prone.
It doesn't matter what software her clients use because there's no
direct
import into the federal or state tax software that she must use.
I send her PDF files of the profit & loss and income statements at
the end
of each month, along with quarterly and YTD reports. This works for
her. I
also send PDF files for personal data when she needs it for annual tax
reporting.
Florida may be different.
HTH,
Rich
