Hi David, Maybe you did what I did initially and created a backup copy of the report file in the same folder? As each report needs a unique guid, this causes a crash on startup. See page http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Custom_Reports#Prerequisites I'll add a note to this wiki page. Regards, Chris Good
