Note too, you can combine multiple criteria in one shot, so no need to iterate 
searches.

Particularly for date ranges, you can also do a View > Filter By... on the 
resulting tab to narrow date ranges so you don’t have to make that part of your 
search criteria if such is your preference. The resulting Account Report 
*should* respect your Filter By... settings. (which also lets you filter by 
reconcile status, another possible bonus.)

Sadly, yes, the Transaction Report is more versitile in what you can display. I 
like that you have the option to show (or not) the *other* splits that are part 
of the returned transaction(s). The Account Report does not have this option. 
Perhaps this would be a good Request For Enhancement you could file (RFE) as a 
bug report. Maybe the code is similar enough that the ‘Account Report’ would 
become a specialized version of the ’Transaction Report’ and get you exactly 
what you are looking for.

Adrien
