What format are you saving the data in? I think that error has occurred when the file format is SQL database and there is not a correct SQL environment... You can try saving the file as compressed XML (which is, I think, the default) to see if that will work. If you can search older messages, this error has been seen before. -- _________________________________ 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.
