John,
Thanks for the pointer on how to get a stack trace. I will see whether I
can find anything useful.
Either way, I will try the Sqlite3 backend eventually. I do have File
History turned on and I actually did use it to recover a file once. I'll

The intent is to hide it from the Accounts page, nothing
Tom,
If you really want to remove the value of an account from your data you can
enter a transaction to zero out the account the same way you close a bank
or credit card account by moving the funds to another location.
Alternatively, create an account balance report that only includes the
subset

account. Then put an appropriate
Hi,
I've created different securities and trading accounts for a few
stocks and crypto I own.
But I don't know how to create an "opening" balance for them. I cannot
