Thank you!

I see now how I can do that, but it's not all that convenient to do, seems
like it would be something that lots of people would want to do.

Copy/paste from HTML seems like not a good way to expect people
to do it as well.
All I want is a total of the columns of a search, seems like this ought
to be a feature built in already.

I also looked for this kind of search/export in the documentation and
couldn't find it, it'd be nice to say something about that too.

I tried things like "export search results" and nothing came up.
Even "search results" didn't say much.
A section on common things people like to do would be good.

Hi Paul

From the Search Results tab, choose Reports / Account Report.

This opens a new tab with a variant of the Transaction Report showing just the transactions in your Search Results.  The Report Options let you tweak which columns are displayed.

From there, you can either File / Export / Report, or just select all and copy /paste.

The export format is HTML, but it pastes into Microsoft Excel in a usable format.

Is there some way to export search results?

I was trying to get a list of medical expenses for the past year and I didn't
see any easy way to do this, is there a good way to do it?

I tried search but I couldn't export it or total the columns.
It seems like I should be able to export this list - this is a
general question.

I tried income expense cash flow for the year, but it gave me just
money-in and money-out. I was looking for detail to export to a spread sheet.

I finally did File Export Transactions and got what I wanted but it seems
like there should be an easier way.

Suggestions?

Thanks!
