Abe,
You can't include/paste pictures inline on the Gnucash mailing list so
they didn't show up :-( You have to either save each pic as a file
and attach them to your email or I've found that you can get away with
pasting 1 pic as the very last thing in your email and it makes it.
Cheers David H.

I guess I am a bit dense - old age will do that to you. Let me
try and
be a bit more specific on my actions and the errors I get. Below is a
screenshot of a budget performance report in GnuCash.
Next, I export it to the folder I want it in and open it in Calc. The
file opens in a browser tab, and I cut and paste the data into Calc.
Notice the different colors used.
I wonder why the colors are there in the first place instead of the
expected black. The negative numbers being in red is good accounting
practice. Look at what happens when I copy them into Calc. Once
again
I get a shift in colors and the negative numbers are not in red and
cannot be changed using cell format. Is the problem in GnuCash or
in Calc?
Thanks for your help.
