(Personally, I like it better than what there was in 4.x). I'm running 5.3, and it looks like the auto-matching in the Notes field isn't fully working (that's been the subject of another thread in this list). I don't use the "use accumulated totals" in budget reports, so I cannot say how well this work... I would suggest making a backup of your GnuCash file, upgrading to the current version, and then trying out your report with the new version... you may decided to continue with it. If you don't, you can erase the new version, re-install the old version, and restore your copy of the GnuCash data file. _________________________________ Richard Losey rlo...@gmail.com Micah 6:8 _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
