Re: [GNC] Compare two sets of accounts?

Myron The same strategy can be used to create additional icons which open GnuCash with a specific datafile. Copy the icons as Michael suggested (one for each datafile) and edit them put in a URI to the specific datafile instead of the --nofile option. Give it a name reflecting that it opens
