Re: [GNC] Start up after shut down
Richard Assuming you are using the XML format files the following link explains the backup and log files ( and Lock file) that may be created in your directory. It is usually a good practice to create the GnuCash file in its own directory so that these files do not get mixed up with other files on your system. https://www.gnucash.org/docs/v3/C/gnucash-guide/basics-backup1.html. As you can see any file with a date-timestamp attached to the file extension is either a backup or a log file. These can be used to recover your main file if the main file is ever corrupted. You should not open any of these fines normally as you will lose any transactions entered since the backup file you opened was created. A common problem people have is accidentally opening a backup file instead of the main file. In this case you will see backup files with two sets of dataestamps in the file extensions. The file you should open on a daily basis will be called .gnucash where is the name you gave it when you created the file, without any date stamps and is the file that GnuCash will open by default if it is the last file used. If GnuCash doesn't open with the file you want to use (the filename without the path appears in the title bar of the main window when it opens. If this is not correct use the File->Open dialog to navigate to the correct file. You can drag the dialog boundaries to expand it and then drag the bar that appears in the column headers to expand the filename colum width so you can see the file extensions clearly. At this point, for safety, you should make a separate backup copy of the folder containg the gnucash data files that you can restore and start from scratch if you have any problems with the following instructions. If you have opened a backup file at some point and you are able to determine the last file opened (In your file manager set it up to see the Date Accessed information. This should allow you to find the most recently opened file.) If your .gnucash file has the Date Accessed information as the timestamp in the most recent backup file then it is more than likely the last file you opened in GnuCash and you should be able to use it. If it was a backup file that is the most recently opened file, then you will need to open it and check that it has any recently loaded transactions in it. If so, you can rename it as .gnucash (you will need to rename the original file to .gnucash.old before doing this. Once you are satisfied that the renamed is correct and has all your data in it, I would move all the existing backup and log files to another directory apart from your main .gnucash. When you are happy that GnuCash is functioning correctly you will de able to delete this directory but you should retain it until you are really sure you have fixed any problems.

Re: [GNC] Start up after shut down
Richard, You do not mention which OS your computer is using, I do not use a Mac so I cannot comment on what works well there. In Windows or Linux GnuCash automatically opens the last used file when it is started unless there is some issue such as not being available at the time the program is started. The next thing to try is to Click on File in the GnuCash title bar and select the filename next to number 1 in the drop down list. I still haven't mentioned using your file manager to select your data file, which is the method many users prefer. That usually works best if it is set to sort with the newest file at the top. If none of those methods work, you probably have a rather unusual setup and need to write down the details that need to be performed before starting GnuCash.

Re: [GNC] Start up after shut down
Since what Stephen says is the default behavior for Gnucash, you will need to figure out what you are doing that is giving you this exceptional behavior. What specific steps are you taking in the save process? What messages does Gnucash report, if any? What specifically happens on startup? Do you get any messages in startup? What operating system and gnucash version are you using? Are you doing anything "interesting" in your system (like using a special network platform, or a proxy, or trying to run gnucash through a VPN, or using a path that includes random exotic characters, or some other bit that might be germane to the problem)? As I said, gnucash opens the last file you had open (sometimes to the confusion and consternation of users-- especially on the Mac), so your experience is not the norm.

[GNC] How to print account names for Grand total in reports
Hi, I'm interested in breaking the totals up by account and showing the account names especially for the Grand Total (for tax purposes) Currently, the transaction record displays the Grand Total on the bottom as follows: Grand Total 500 GOOG -333 APPL -150 SPY $12345.67 100 QQQ $987654.32 The stocks I can account for by the symbol name but I'm not sure what the amounts belong to. How do I display the account names and the totals from each account with transactions during the period?

Greatly appreciated, thanks!
We'll be able to get by until either there's a new release or I get a clean
account and builder up and running.
I just noticed something.
Do you have more than one monitor? If so, is GnuCash on the main one or (one of) the secondary one(s)? The surest way to tell
which is "main" is to open System Preferences>Desktop & Screen Saver (shortcut: control-click on the desktop and
select "Change Desktop Background"). Each monitor will get a dialog, and on all the secondary monitors the dialog will
say "Secondary Desktop" in the title bar and will lack the close/hide/fullscreen stoplight in the upper left corner; the
one on the main display will be a normal system preferences dialog with "Desktop & Screen Saver" in the title bar.
If it's all yes so far, try moving GnuCash to the main display and then opening
the Find dialog (cmd-F or Edit>Find). Do the dropdowns work now?
Regards,
John Ralls
Yes, dual-monitor setup here.
Main window on secondary monitor
* Find Transaction window ("FTW") appears on secondary monitor
* Pull-downs do not function
* FTW can be dragged to primary monitor; touching pull-down area causes
"jump" of FTW to secondary monitor
Drag main window to primary monitor
* FTW follows
* FTW drop-downs function
* FTW can be dragged to secondary monitor; touching pull-down area
causes "jump" of FTW to primary monitor
Also, GnuCash doesn't do well with the monitors going to sleep, usually
(always?) crashing on wake.
I'll watch it more carefully, but at least this one looks like a failure

So GC permits you to click in a cell to edit it. just like pretty much any other box-based data entry program. You've been told that you recorded a transfer of $15 between 2 accounts when it should have been a transfer the opposite way (ie -15) If you are in basic ledger view, as Adrian had earlier suggested you try, what is such a radical trick about clicking in the number field and pressing - to swap the direction of the money flow? ( Granted, If you are still in GL view, you have to "click & press" twice (once for each split) - though when every purchase transaction is to the same expense account, GL or even auto-split view seems overkill anyway, IMHO). I think this level of editing a transaction is covered in the docs, assuming you've entered a few transactions and somewhat got the hang of clicking around in a new program's interface first. $Flames > /dev/null Maf ___ 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.

Re: [GNC] Unable to import QIF or QFX.
Evan, You should in principle be able to use either format, QFX or QIF (but obviously not with each other). QFX should be a bit easier to follow if you have to check the file content out as it is tagged and the QIF format is a bit more obscure but QIF seems to be used by people migrating from Quicken. I have just run an import of a test QIF file I used while updating the documentation into 3.5 on Linux without any problems but it is a fairly simple minimal file. If you have not found it yet, the following wiki page: https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Quicken_Migration should be helpful particularly for strategies for minimising problems. Particularly useful should be the comments about relating categories to GnuCash accounts and presetting up the account structure to match the categories used in Quicken. The date format is a common problem with importing. Check the file content for the date format used and choose appropriately in the import wizard. You may need to describe in more detail exactly at which steps in the import wizard the process is failing and which steps complete successfully. There is an initial file loading into the importer followed by processes to match categories in the data to the GnuCash account structure and finally the loading of the data into Gnucash. If you can specify which of the steps in the LH panel of the import wizard are completeing successfully, it will help with locating where the problem is occurring. You can also start GnuCash in debugging mode with --debug and /or --extra switches at a command line which will increase the logged information. Don't change the logging configuration log.conf at this stage unless one of the main developers (John Ralls /Geert Janssens or Derek) asks you too. See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Logging, https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Tracefile for locating errors. If the QIF file does not load and you don't get to the following steps in the QIF Import wizard, it is likely to be a problem with the file format. otherwise it will be the matching of the Quicken structure to the structure in GnuCash.
