Argh, this is actually the expected behavior, but it was pretty silly of me. What happens is that gnucash cancels successfully, and then receives the first transaction for that account. It searches for an account matching the account id for that transaction, fails (we didn't create it), so asks to create an account for that transaction. Ad nauseum. > Proposed Response > -Another dialog pops up and asks 'Do you want to cancel the import?' > 'Yes/No' What I propose instead is to make it so when you cancel, it will ignore all transaction until the next account is encountered. If the ofx file contains more than one account, the user will still have to press cancel multiple times (but only once for each account). This way he can skip a account downloaded by error (very common) without aborting the whole process and downloading a new OFX file. -- Benoit Gr�goire LibOFX http://step.polymtl.ca/~bock/libofx/ _______________________________________________ gnucash-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gnucash.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-devel
