Thus to get the best out of the mailing list you need to use what's available to emphasise or highlight things. E.g. the usual way to emphasise something is to surround it with *stars* or _underlines_. Using a word processor like Open Office to create your text will just mislead you into thinking you have created formatted text when you haven't. -- Chris Green _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
