That worked a treat. When coming to do a backup I encountered something of a surprise (see attached screen shot). The Accounts were previoulsy known as "Kath&PeteAccoounts.gnucash.20221229212946.gnucash" but from 5/5/23 the name has been changed to "01Jan2023 QIF Imports.gnucash.20230506111943.gnucash". I have no recollection of making such a change, not to mention wondering what ever happened to entries for January, February, March, and April although the actual transactions entered in those months are in the current file. I am also intrigued as to why the file name type has changed to QIF imports. I do find that GNU Cash is full of little surprises.

Delete the sub account, the pop-up will ask to which account you want to transfer. 3. Choose Interest Earned as your receipient account. 4. On accepting, the transactions will move to your Interest Earned account.

I now wish to do some sonsolidation. For example I am in the silly poition of having three acounts for interest earned - Interest Earned, Interest Gross, Interest Net. In this case I would like to simply merge the two sub-accounts into the Interest Earned account. Having tried working through the Help section I cannot seem to find a suitable tool. Your advice would be appreciated.
