Edwin, for whatever reason, the First Run Wizard apparently didn't run. I understand the end result of having an unsaved empty file is thus confusing. A simple solution is to choose File > New, name your new book, and the Wizard *should* run to guide you through selecting accounts to add,

I'm pleased I was able to help you; by the way, you should use "reply-all" to ensure that your response is copied to the entire list. I have done this for this response so that everyone can see where you are. There is some kind of help for setting up accounts and getting going; I know I used it

This worked fine for me as well. It could be the result of a transitory glitch error. I sometimes run into locked file issues when using Gnucash. Normally I can still make the entries that I want, but if not, reloading Gnucash usually fixes whatever it is going on. On Thursday, October 5,

Thanks, but I already tried to edit them. I can't change the symbol for lookup (it is greyed out) and the source is simply 'currency' and no other options. When I created entirely new securities using the symbols you provided, I was able to edit everything including setting the source. It

It isn't clear from what you say - did you already have GC working and have done some upgrades and now you can't get going again? If so, File -> Open {find your data file} might be something to try. 0.02 Maf. On Thursday, 5 October 2023 18:02:40 BST Edwin Booth wrote: > Hi. I cannot get

Hi Nigel, Working fine here on Win 10 (x2) and Win 11. Never used this report before but it came up initially with the usual blank report, then went into options and added "Account Summary" and "Cash Flow" Reports which seemed to display ok using all available stylesheets. Cheers David H. On

Oh I don't think you have to do anything terribly complicated. I've had mutual funds change their trading symbols in the past, and it was as simple as editing the security via Tools-> Security Editor Changing all the perinent information for the affected securities. Gnucash uses that info,

Thanks Ken, I was able to add those two in a 'Precious Metals' namespace, that indeed works. But now how to integrate that with my existing XAU/XAG denominated accounts? I'm guessing I'll have to make new ones with those symbols for commodity, then delete the old accounts and let GnuCash move

It works as expected on MacOS Monterey, so might be an issue with the Windows build, or your book/machine. Regards, Adrien On 10/3/23 2:25 PM, Nigel Stapley wrote: Hi Just installed Gnucash Build ID: 5.4+(2023-09-23) on Win 10. Using Custom Multicolumn Report produces reports that are

Hi. I cannot get GnuCash to work on my MacBook Pro (running Ventura). I’ve downloaded the latest version and then, once I’ve tapped on the line in the downloads file, it just goes to a page that says “unsaved GnuCash file” and asks if I wish to save it or close it. Neither button works; it just
