Another thing to consider is that the search is really searching on a SPLIT and not a TRANSACTION. If you're trying to search for something and using different accounts in your query, you could end up in an empty-set result because you cannot have a split where split->account == A **AND**

Hmmm... I just happened to need to do a Find and tried this out. I intentionally chose an account that I knew was definitely *not* involved in the transaction I was looking for. (or any other transactions that would match my criteria) Yet, the results were the same if I had this account

You don't need to 'select' an account before doing a search. (it has no bearing on the search at all) Always conduct searches when viewing the main accounts tab, and if you want to specify accounts, do that in your search criteria. Regards, Adrien On 6/6/22 10:30 AM, John Griessen wrote:
