Do the splits *that match the open account register* have 'paid' in their memos? If the 'paid' text is in a memo assigned to some *other* account, you will not get results. Memos are not for the open register, but only for accounts matching *for that split*. e.g., Dr. Expenses:Utilities

Fair enough. My experience with the "Find..." is that it's buggy, and so you're right, I didn't spend a tremendous amount of effort sorting out the differences. > On 04/06/2023 9:46 AM john wrote: > > > You're leaping to conclusions. The OP didn't say anything about it being a > second

You're leaping to conclusions. The OP didn't say anything about it being a second search. Regards, John Ralls > On Apr 6, 2023, at 9:34 AM, Patrick James wrote: > > This is a bug, and I reported it as Bug ID 798803. > > https://bugs.gnucash.org/show_bug.cgi?id=798803 > > Selecting the "New

When I search in the Find dialog box using the Description field, everything works. But when I search by the Memo field or the 'Description, Notes or Memo' field or the Action field the Search Results always turn out empty, even though the search string is present in the Memo or Action fields
