The biggest problem with any of this is if the money is actually sitting in a
bank account. Reconciling is a mess. (I don’t think you can reconcile a parent
by considering the child accounts to ‘roll-up’)
This works best with physical cash you hold in your hand.

The saved reports-2.4 folder is in the .GnuCash (hidden) folder in the user
directory as described in the WIKI where other program specific settings
are stored.
However, the OP should have kept printouts or electronic backups such as
PDFs, so the custom reports would not be needed.

Hi All!
I’m going to discuss (and get people’s opinions) on a way in which many users
(myself included) struggle to get “what they want” from GNUCash budgeting.
GNUcash is very strict on proper double-entry bookkeeping practices (which I
love). In accounting, “budgeting” means that you are plott

Maybe just to rule it out as an issue you could temporarily put it on a local
drive.
How big is it? It's XML, right? See if turning compression on or off makes a
difference.

In that regard, where-ever there are instructions about subscribing and
un-subscribing it would be useful to have a link to the Nabble mirror, if

Hi All,
I am in the process of downloading 2.7.3 and preparing a test file to see
if that release is improved. I cannot see the email asking for that here
in this instance of Gmail on my real laptop, but I am sure there was one.
On a related note I have a question about splash screen behavior.
Geert,
Could the install not include a particular required font as a dependency or as
part of the installer?
Perhaps even better would be to use a GPL licensed icon font, though I’m not
sure if you can specify different fonts for different cells in the register.
Doing so would provide a cleane

This is happening on Window7 64bit too. I didn't have this issue until I
installed 2.6.19. Now even the simplest report of summing up an expense
report of less than 50 entries takes a couple of minutes to appear with the
"GnuCash is not responding" error message.
