I would like to echo Bruce's request for a General Ledger report. This is incredibly useful when trying to trace what's happened when things go wrong or reports give results you don't expect.
Bruce, you're right, when using T-tables with pencil and paper, the totals are at the bottom (or whenever you close off a period). However, most accounting software does provide the option for a running balance column alongside the debit and credit columns, which can be quite useful. I am brand new to GnuCash, so will be delighted if anyone corrects Bruce and I and tells us this already exists.
