Hi Robert, If I copy and paste a Gnucash report directly into LibreOffice Calc (version 7.6.4.1 on Win10) everything is black as expected except for the negative numbers that are red which is what I also expected to happen ? Not sure what's happening with OP's calc. Cheers David H. On Sun, 10

I think the OP's issue is the fact that Calc does not preserve the red coloring of the negative numbers. The red coloring of the negative numbers is something *GnuCash* is doing as a "good accounting practice", but the Calc is not doing. At Sat, 9 Mar 2024 18:13:04 -0600

Abe, The default colors which come up in Calc are going to depend upon its preference settings and any formatting already set in Calc before importing. GnuCash has no control over that. Cal's cell "currency" setting has the option of negative numbers appearing in red. If you format all cells

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
