Thanks for the response, Stan, although I'm afraid I haven't been clear. It's not the report title that's the issue, it's the app-generated lines in the report like "Retained Earnings" and "Total Liabilities and Equity". These things are presumably kept in the localization files, because they change depending on the language GnuCash is running in.
See my responses to Adrien and Michael for further explanation.

Click Options (or Edit » Report Options). 3. Select the General tab. 4. Change Report Title to Net Assets. This is the one that appears in the report. 5. Change Report name to anything you wish, though Net Assets is probably easiest. 6. Look at all the tabs and change any other options you wish. 7. Click OK. 8. Click Save Report Configuration. A window will open showing the Report name from step 5. Click Close to save this report configuration. In future, click Reports » Saved Report Configurations and then click the green dot to the right of your Net Assets report.
