Spectacular, thank you Jim. Your suggestion was the solution. I would
never have found it on my own.
Cheers,
Howard

the amount column is labeled Charges.
I suggest you double-check the Account Type for the "Licenses and
Permits" account. You can do this from the Accounts tab, by clicking on
the account and pressing the Edit button. An Edit Account dialogue
appears. In the bottom left corner of this dialogue, there is a list,
"Account Type". In an expense hierarchy, only the types Income and
Expense will be listed. If Income is highlighted, change it to Expense.
The clue is that use of the term "Charges". In an Income account, the
left amount column is titled "Charge", and the right is titled "Income".
In an Expense account, the left amount column is titled "Expense", and
the right is titled "Rebate".
Does this help?
