Thank you David, you're right, I don't need to 'close the books' as the accounts are only for assessing where my personal expenditure is going, and keeping track of 'cash-flow'. I hadn't thought about 'reports.'
I've now discovered how to set date parameters to produce a report, and when the report is displayed on the screen, it's easy to cut and paste info into an excel file to keep for 'prosperity' and playing around with budgets. I had in the past tried to export an account into a format for Excel. But failed several times, the above 'cut and paste' have worked well. Thank you for the links, they're invaluable to understanding how GnuCash works. At this point in time, I'm still getting my head around the info. -- Sent from: http://gnucash.1415818.n4.nabble.com/GnuCash-User-f1415819.html _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list [email protected] To update your subscription preferences or to unsubscribe: https://lists.gnucash.org/mailman/listinfo/gnucash-user If you are using Nabble or Gmane, please see https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Mailing_Lists for more information. ----- Please remember to CC this list on all your replies.
