Not yet. I could do it this weekend, though.

I've been busy with a deadline next week at work. Been taking my time night and day. :( I've been putting in 5 minutes here and there with Gnucash, working on an extensible QofQuery->SQL engine. 100% arbitrary SQL sure is a pain in the butt... > I'm currently tearing up the guts of "DWI" http://dwi.sourceforge.net > DWI was originally (and still is) a way of 'quickly' developing glade > apps that are hooked to an SQL db.

A RAD tool for hooking GUIs to databases is something that would be good to have. There's AppGen, but I think that's based on a proprietary database and it may not even be available anymore. It was fairly expensive, IIRC. Any easier way to add new types of data to Gnucash, but it sounds like what you are looking at is a fairly major change to the architecture. Perhaps that's something to look at for the future. -- Matthew Vanecek perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(41*2),sqrt(7056),(unpack(c,H)-2),oct(115),10);' ******************************************************************************** For 93 million miles, there is nothing between the sun and my shadow except me.
