The problem with Gnucash is that it is hard or perhaps practically impossible 
to modify unless perhaps one is 
very familiar with the program. THis is at least how it used to be. 


This makes it practically impossible to switch from our system to GNUcash. IT 
was some time ago that I tried to work with this 
program, but just importing my data was not possible or too difficult. 


The advantages of building a financial program based on Base are obvious. The 
import issue for example is already solved. 


Also, it would not be all that difficult to write it. Users could much more 
easily modify the program and on and on and on. I am not understanding 
why there is not such a project. Or is there?

GnuCash has no dependencies on anything made by Microsoft. While you 
can run it on Windows, that's not a requirement.
