Re: [GNC] Report - transactions vs day of month instead of day of week

David, That's what I was thinking for simplicity, too. However, we have to keep track of the exact CAD amounts. How should we do that? In a separate spreadsheet? At the end, we have to account for the exchange gain/(loss). If he puts in 5,000 CAD (1,000,000 HUF @ 200HUF/CAD), he wants 5000CAD
