Pardon me, I am really very new at this. Would you like me to do that now with the files or have you already done it? Will just a plain diff file.scm filenew.scm > diffoutfile do the trick? Attached please file the diff output files including the total ex tax localisation changes. Also, do you have an idea why opening gnucash with a saved fancy-invoice report in the old format using the new fancy-invoice.scm etc crashes gnucash? The same may happen with the the other files. Not tested yet. This is avoided if the old report tab is closed prior to saving before upgrading the invoice files. This is a show stopper if it happened with a gnucash upgrade.
