We seem to be barking up four or more different trees:
1) A transaction in process is not saved, as the data store and code are
designed to ignore it even during a save, auto or not. This only explains one
lost trans per account.
2) Does an SQL back end behave differently from an XML one? I would expect SQL
inserts, updates, commits every time a transaction is added or modified and
exited, so yes, but not the in process trans. How hard is it to move from XML
to some RDBMS? I started out there, but somewhere got defaulted to XML.
3) Does his disk file get saved to persistent media? I use GDrive with no
obvious problem other than awaiting it to get active after Win11 login. This
issue might even complicate an SQL backend if the server is local and the files
are remote.
4) Having a window pop up asking if you really want a save when autosave times
out means no auto save at all when the PC is unattended. I guess beware?
