I have noticed it, and that was exactly what I wanted, the balance of the *account* as of those transactions, that is, a 'balance forward' type situation at the beginning.

To be clear, you want a running balance of the transactions, starting from zero, not the actual account balance as of those transactions?

There might be a way to get it fiddling with various reports or settings, but if you can't find it or it doesn't exist, you can always export to a spreadsheet (leaving that column off initially) and popping in a Balance column filled with the proper formula.

A really bad idea, but doable, would be to create a reversing transaction the date before your filter to zero the account. Just don't forget to remove it when you are done! (maybe assign it to Imbalance or Orphan so it will stand out)

Having set up a Transaction report and a General Ledger report, I note in the options 
under the DISPLAY TAB there is a check box to enable a "Running Balance".

Under the Options GENERAL TAB I have my Start and End dates chosen as the "Start of Accounting 
period" and "End of Accounting period".

In the figures shown in the resulting table of the Running Balance the totals 
show for the few years in the file, and not the date filtered amounts for the 
accounting year.

Has anyone noticed this?
