Well, I always get the "Cannot find default values" dialog on startup. (I read about that in one of the threads.) I've followed the setup as it recommends, and here are the entire contents of my .gconf.path file:
######## The following lines were added by GnuCash. ######## xml:readwrite:$(HOME)/.gconf xml:readonly:C:\GnuCash\gnucash\etc\gconf\gconf.xml.defaults ############## End of lines added by GnuCash. ############## ######## The following lines were added by GnuCash. ######## xml:readonly:C:\GnuCash\gnucash\etc\gconf\gconf.xml.defaults ############## End of lines added by GnuCash. ############## ######## The following lines were added by GnuCash. ######## xml:readonly:C:\GnuCash\gnucash\etc\gconf\gconf.xml.defaults ############## End of lines added by GnuCash. ############## ######## The following lines were added by GnuCash. ######## xml:readonly:C:\GnuCash\gnucash\etc\gconf\gconf.xml.defaults ############## End of lines added by GnuCash. ############## Looks like evidence of my repeated attempts -- yet I still get the dialog every time I start up. And if lines were *added* to .gconf.path, it appears mine was completely empty before they were added. Is that normal? -----Original Message----- From: Derek Atkins [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 01, 2006 7:08 AM To: Brian Blatnik Cc: Christian Stimming; gnucash-devel mailing list Subject: Re: Compiling GnuCash on Windows "Brian Blatnik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: >> - Creating a new file (with default account hierarchy) > > This doesn't work for me.

Perhaps this means the preferences aren't being found? This should default to 'true'. -derek -- Derek Atkins, SB '93 MIT EE, SM '95 MIT Media Laboratory Member, MIT Student Information Processing Board (SIPB) URL: http://web.mit.edu/warlord/ PP-ASEL-IA N1NWH [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP key available _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list gnucash-devel@gnucash.org https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
