Hi John, I also actually tried that Find > All Accounts > Choose Accounts = Expenses:(all children) and it's still blank.
To be honest, I find this text in the documentation really hard to understand: "The Account option performs a search where the accounts selected in the Choose Accounts dialog will both be searched individually for results. This means that a match in any of the selected accounts will either be displayed (matches any account) or discarded (matches no account). The All Accounts option performs a search where accounts selected in the Choose Accounts dialog will only return results that match in both accounts."
