Re: [GNC] Exchange Rate to Price Database issue with low transactions amounts

The fonts or font size is so small that they are difficult to read. I can’t find any way to adjust them or the kerning so I don’t need readers and an occasional magnifying glass. Any suggestions as to where I should make font or font size adjustments? Gerry Starnes gstar...@me.com ___

Sounds like you're creating your O-B txn as a Debit AND Credit to your Checking account. Don't do that. It's supposed to be a transaction between your Checking Account and Equity:Opening Balances -derek On Thu, February 13, 2025 12:35 am, Gaya Erlandson wrote: > I put in all the info - every tr
