Michael, no request for added features to GC was intended. I was just 
exploring the existing capabilities of the program.

 Having been involved in product development I have experienced countless 
meetings, discussions and passionate exchanges about nailing down product 
design spec's and later product update priorities and considerations.
As I have been immersed in using GC extensively for the last few weeks I have 
learned a lot about it and its capabilities and all of that has only 
contributed to my admiration of the product, the development team, and their 
efforts.
But, none of that negates continuing to explore and dig for features that may 
be in the system... but not obvious to a user who is up against the clock 
spending day and night trying to get a job done.
Hopefully that clears up my intent and any unintended interpretations of my 
original post in this thread.
Finally I want to compliment the great help and those who provide it here on 
this list.
I do have a couple of follow-up questions on the topic but I'll put those in a 
separate post.

Best,Fran3

This is a perfect example (even though minimal changes compared to what 
I am usually doing)

Why ask for/expect this capability from WITHIN the accounting software? 
These are the sort of changes you might want/need for the finished 
product (the report as will be presented) but have nothing to do with 
the accounting data.

Export the report, bring it into a document under control of your 
favorite editor, then add the details like notes, change font or size of 
certain parts, selective bolding or italics, etc.

COULD the developers add (to within the accounting package) the 
capabilities of an editor? Perhaps. But WHY do that when plenty of 
perfectly good editing apps already exist.
