Thanks, that is interesting. I migrated from Quicken end of last year and it is one of the things I got used to with Quicken and can't find an analog with GnuCash. Overall GnuCash has been wonderful, and my workflow is more efficient for my needs.

Then select Description-Contains-(type in part of the description, can be just one letter) and if you check Match Case it will find any descriptions that match. It will show the same description multiple times however. Obviously, if it is a seldom used description it won't show up that often.

Is there a way to produce a list of all those descriptions that I have used before? Autocomplete is great if I am close to spelling the description I want. Otherwise I am just guessing and would like to reuse a previously used description.

Auto-complete just matches previous entries as type.

The autocompletion works if I remember the description correctly. Would like to see a list for those rarely used ones. In the Transfer field there is a pull down list of accounts.
