Anna,
I would bet you downloaded source files. Installing from source, though 
possible, is not for fainthearted.
The file you need (you are running Windows, right?) is 
gnucash-2.2.0-setup.exe. 

Download to desktop, doubleclick, next, next. Done

Dear Sirs/Madams,

I wish to compile gnucash on my computer.

http://svn.gnucash.org/repo/gnucash/trunk/packaging/win32/README

I read the following

* Download wget
from http://www.mingw.org/download.shtml -> Current -> mingwPORT -> (bin, 
wget-*)

I am unable to see a bin file of mingwPORT

SQL Backend?

[keith]

There was a thread going last year on the SQL backend. I'd be interested 
in testing/helping. I'm currently doing a lot of work in (shudder) 
Oracle, but I can install pg too. I checked out the svn, but haven't dug 
much further.

If the solution with the ListStore turns out to be the long-term
solution, we'll have to avoid leaking it, too.  It would have to be
owned by the transaction view, since the GtkCompletion is transient.
IIRC, that means something like g_object_remove_ref() from the dispose
method.

Oh, what a pain!  I was so pleased when I saw that the first
autocomplete implementation re-used the transaction-model.  That's
just very simple, and automatically has many properties that are nice
for autocompletion, like 1) it only uses the descriptions already in
that register, and 2) it sees the newly added descriptions.

It would be such a shame if we had to do something like copy
model+insert new.  But honestly, it would probably still be simpler
than the old custom autocomplete code.

If you try again with the single model, and get stumped, don't
hesitate to send the backtrace here.

Re: installation

I'm assuming you're referring to GnuCash-2.2.0.

If you're on Windows, you'll want to download and run the executable at
.

If you're on unix, you'll want to wait until your distribution/vendor offers
a pre-built package of Gnucash 2.2, and install it using your distribution's
package manager.

I'm not sure what you downloaded, since you didn't identify it at all, but if
it's the sources, then it should have an INSTALL at the top.   If you have
the sources, it's possible to compile the software yourself (on either unix
or Windows) ... more information on that can be found at
.

installation

I can't figure out how to install this program.  I downloaded it and found
it was some achieved/zipped files and got them unzipped but can't seem to
locate an install file.  Any information would be greatly appreciated.

The problem is that the splash screen disappears after about 10 seconds but the
main window only appears a lot later. So a solution would be to really show the
splash screen until the main window shows up (and displaying something like
"rendering report " in the status line of the splash screen).

OK, I filed this as bug #457944.
