Hi David (and others who replied as well),

Thanks for suggesting the Transaction Report; but that's not what I'm looking for.  It's my fault for not being more specific.  I don't want to have to create a report.  I'm looking to do a query that produces the equivalent of what Find filtering does already within a single account; so that I'm seeing the found transactions as they appear in ALL the accounts.

You might be asking why that's important for me (as opposed to getting to the transactions via a report).  Well this is why.  When I do Find filtering for a date range within an account, I get to see the actual set of transactions for those dates.  But if what I'm looking for doesn't jump out at me, I can do a subsequent Find command to Refine Current Search.  That makes it easy to narrow down my search (maybe multiple times) to hopefully locate the specific transaction I'm looking for.  With Transaction Reports, I essentially have to recreate those reports from scratch each time with modifications, which is more time consuming.  The key word here is EASY.

BTW, I also looked at some of the other suggestions that popped up in the last few minutes, mainly with the General Journal.  But in my tests trying to use the Find command with the General Journal, that doesn't seem to work at all (unless I'm doing something really wrong there).

So maybe a better way to ask my question is this: Is there a Find command that works across ALL accounts at once, rather than just within a single account?

Tom,

Have you tried the Transaction Report ?

Transaction Report >> Options >> Accounts >> Select all >> General >> Date Posted (or Date Entered) >> Enter Start and End Date ?

Cheers David H.

    Hi all,

    This might be a newbie question; so please forgive me if it is. 
    But is
    there an easy way in GnuCash to get a list of ALL transactions for
    ALL
    accounts that were recorded into GnuCash against one single specific
    DATE (e.g., 2/17/2025)?  Better yet, is there a way to do that
    sort of
    query for a user-specified DATE RANGE (e.g., all of Feb 2025)?

    FYI, I know how to use Find to filter transactions by date within an
    INDIVIDUAL account.  But what I'm looking for here is a way to do
    that
    same kind of date filtering for ALL accounts all at once in a SINGLE
    QUERY.  Is that possible?

    Tom
