Stephen,

I understand that a user may have different data files; but you only have *one* data file open at a time.  What I think the user should be able to do is see a confirmation of the full path to that *currently open* data file.  And since the Help->About window provides the full paths to GNC_USERDATA_DIR and GNC_USERCONFIG_DIR, it seems like that would be the logical place to also display the location of the data file that is currently open.

Just curious about this issue.  Since the location of the user's transaction data file is one of the *most* important pieces of information for the user to have, why wouldn't that be made readily available to the user?  Wouldn't that directory name be fairly easy and straightforward to add to the Help->About dialog box?  FYI, in looking thru Bugzilla I couldn't find any mention of a feature request to do that (although I might have missed it).

But which data file?  I have over 6 different books/data-file and each one is in a different directory/folder/location.
