Calculating the performance of an investment is not simple if cash/shares/etc. are added to and/or removed from the account during the period of interest. For example, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_rate_of_return. -Arthur On Mon, Jan 16, 2023 at 12:39 PM Murugan Muruganandam < m.murug

Just a nit. I don't think Kindle devices support ePub, at least not in recent models. I'm not sure whether the apps they have for PCs and phones. I have a book in LPR format (whatever that is) that works on Kindle for PC and Phone but not Kindle devices. >From the Amazon site: Content Formats Su

A Harvey 4:49 PM (1 minute ago) to john All, I have a couple of questions. 1) Do you think it is important that the documentation be easily readable on a Kindle e-reader? If not, then no problem. 2) Do the documents need to be published on Amazon? If not, then I would think that a MOBI version

Could be confusion between Windows 10 behavior and common browsers. In Firefox and Chrome, CTL + and CTL - increase and decrease size of everything displayed within a browser tab. This is independent of the magnifier function and of what other applications may provide. -Arthur On Mon, Aug 17, 20

Have you tried re-installing an older version to ascertain whether it is just a 4.2 problem? In the past, I've occasionally encountered problems with some versions of Gnucash that would not run, regardless of what I tried, on one of three systems using identical versions of Windows but installed o
