Hi again,
I'm not sure if this kind of issue is on the radar of the developers,
but here's some more information, in case somebody decides to chase the
issue down.
My bank offers to export the data to CSV, QFX, or QBO formats, based on
user set filters such as category, amount, date. For the QFX option, the
data that are written to the file seem to depend on the filters chosen.
GnuCash can't handle any version of the file that I have been able to
produce -- either I get the zero/uneditable balance issue that I
mentioned in the first email, or the import window is empty (as happened
in the Chase downloads previously discussed on this list). I assume the
problem comes from the precise tags that are written to the file, but I
don't really know.
At present, I am working around this bug by exporting to CSV, which is a
bit or a pain.
It would be nice to get GnuCash to deal gracefully with weird QFX
downloads, if possible. I'm happy to help with debugging, if somebody
wants to work on it.

Hi,
I have encountered a strange problem with QFX import from my credit
card, issued by Home Trust. It's similar, but not exactly the same, as
the ones discussed in the archive with Chase.
GnuCash apparently imports the QFX correctly, but transactions show up
in the credit card account with a balance of zero. Jumping to the
corresponding transaction in the source account shows the correct
balance, however.
But it's not possible as far as I can tell to get the card account to
show any balance at all. Manually editing the transaction does nothing.
You can enter $100, press return, and the account still shows zero.
Opening the qfx file in a text editor shows one long blob of text and
tags. I assume there must be something strange about the qfx file, but I
have no idea what it is, or how to fix it.
Any ideas would be welcome!
