A couple of additions to Adrien's information: 1) Searching using "site:lists.gnucash.org" will also include all the documentation and other gnucash resources. This may be useful, of course! But if you want *just* the list archives, use "site:lists.gnucash.org/pipermail" 2) Unfortunately, Alt-T

Thanks for the key strokes Adrien. Guess I was just bumfuzzled and forgot about ALT-TAB. Hopefully I’ll remember it if needed again. The search function may be broken but we still have the ability to look at posts in several ways by scrolling so that’s something at least. In my initial haste

Phyllis, I could not find in your messages what release of GnuCash that you are using or what kind of computer you are running it on. I assume that it is a fairly recent release of GnuCash, but if it happens to be release 4.10, for example, IIRC that release has a bug that could be your problem.
