Another way to figure out where your current data file is stored: * Open GnuCash * Click on the File menu * You will see a list of last-used files between the "Properties" and the "Close" menu items * Hover with your mouse pointer over the name of your data file => The full path of this file will be displayed in the GnuCash status bar at the bottom of the GnuCash window Regards, Geert _______________________________________________ gnucash-user mailing list gnucash-user@gnucash.org 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.
