Look under Edit>Preferences>Register>Register Defaults>Register Opens in a
New Window.. I tink that box should be unchecked by default, but it may
have changed. I think that setting goes with the data file, so it may be

Jack,
You've heard it twice, and I'll repeat myself: go read at least the Basics
section of the Tutorial.
It covers LITERALLY every issue you've raised thus far.
Once you've read those chapters, I think you'll be clearer about Gnucash and
its use.

See my last reply! I am backwards. I’m sure my Accounting classes in college in

accounts. But if you are like me, your institutional accounts are not
really in expenses where most of the category accounts lie. I have my
traditional bank accounts in Assets (as well as brokerage accounts, home

Thanks for the feedback!
I'll get to that and read thru. Then if I am a typical Quicken fool I'll be
back for more direction!
I'm wondering then if there is a way to designate the "real" accounts in
the massive Account Listing so i can see/sort or make those stand out from
the "non-real" accounts
Jack,
Welcome to Gnucash, and welcome to this list.
Before you tinker with the account structure in Gnucash, I strongly recommend
that you read the Basics section in the Tutorial & Concepts Guide (available on
the Gnucash website). The 4 chapters there will give you a better understanding

I dropped Quicken finally and have been trying GC for a few days. So far it
seems like a great replacement but I'm a total noob.
My first question:
