Been using MySQL DB for gnu cash for many years, mainly because of security. Never had a problem. Very reliable and fast on my lan server. Not sure how fast over internet.

[GNC] Using a mysql database?
Hi How reliable is my data if I move from an XML file to a mysql database? I just tried saving my books in a mysql (MariaDB) database, reload from the database, and then saving back to an XML file. The files are of the same size, and they have a large chunk that is identical on both sides in my difftool. But there is also a large chunk that differs, so most likely the order is shuffled. I started xmldiff on it just to see what it finds, but that tool has not yet returned. Does anyone here know if there are any issues with data reliability when saving data in a mysql database? Also, do you happen to know a difftool for xml files that runs faster than xmldiff? I started xmldiff on the 2x50MB (uncompressed) files I have lying around, and it is still running for the last hour or so. /Jacob ___ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. - Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.

[GNC] How to customize the columns shown in the "generic import transaction matcher" (when downloading transactions from my bank) ?
HI there, *Just joined the list (as I found nothing helpful on this on Google and this list seems to be the most up-to-date place for asking gnucash-related stuff)*. For a while now, I'm using the [Actions --> Online Actions --> Get Transactions...] feature to get my banking transactions into gnucash. So far so good. However, the "generic import transaction matcher"-windows which pops up as part of this process is not much to my liking: It shows a number of (to me) irrelevant columns; I'd like it to just always show a) the columns I'm interested in and b) remember the ideal width per column (as set by me *once*). How to achieve this? Possible (and if so, how easily accomplishable)? Thanks!

Re: [GNC] Account Hierarchy Meesed Up
AAK, When I want to make a massive change to something like my account tree, I make a map of where I want to go first. Often it is just with pencil and paper, but sometime I can print something and mark it up.
