Hi Kevin, That's good news. Having historic transactions not change is indeed a good step. But I wonder; would it not be possible to have the exchange rate not affect the buckets but only transactions? In my scenario: when I have an income in euros than why would the amount of euros in my buckets change if the pound changes versus the euro? I spent in pounds but the euro amount is constant here. If, say, my income is 2000 euros per month than I always have that amount to flow into the euro buckets, no matter if the pound goes up or down.
Please correct me if I am wrong, I'm trying to understand better how it works, all best, Gerben On 6 feb, 14:17, Kevin Hoctor <[email protected]> wrote: > On Feb 6, 2009, at 5:45 AM, Gerben wrote: > > > Thanks for the reply.
