Hey Drew, Have you considered creating a hidden bucket for this purpose? You would still use a normal "Savings" bucket to allocate income and do money flows to "trim to the fat" into this bucket, and then at the end of the month when you want this money to "disappear" you do a money flow from this Savings bucket into a hidden bucket. This hidden bucket would essentially accumulate money over time, but since it is hidden, you wouldn't see it as available for spending. This would also provide you with the "history" and undo capabilities you're looking for. The only other thing I can think of is to go back and adjust your cash flow starting balance every month to reduce by the amount you "saved". But this would get really ugly since you would need to go through and delete all cash flows to your Savings bucket as well. And of course, no undo. -Lance --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "No Thirst Software User Forum" group.
