(in most any date ranges you might want, up to about 2 years) as a CSV

Someone on this list shared the following script with me to load the
build dependencies.
I ran it back around Ubuntu 18.? and now am up on 22.04 with GnuCash 4.x
Come to think, there may have been a module update since then, but that
will become obvious if you compile.

Actually there's a preference setting so that I need type only a few
characters of the account name, ignoring higher levels.
I believe it's associated with Register Defaults » Only display leaf
account names.

The best way to choose a bank is to find one close to home that has
important features like types of accounts that you need and physical branch
hours and locations that work for you. Whichever bank meets those
requirements probably also offers file exports in several formats.

Version 2.6.19 only works the old way where you need to type a few
characters of each level starting at the top. You need at least 3.x to get
the better autofill in the account field.

It is incredibly easier to list banks that don't offer that service or that
do it wrong. A list of banks that do would almost duplicate the yellow
pages (remember them?) and would go out of date just as quickly.

Aha, thanks John. I wonder how much trouble it would be for a user to
update their compiler or if that is just a mess for the rest of the
system. (all else being equal, which I'm sure it isn't)

I use 6 different banks and many more credit cards and they all offer downloads

their website. If you go to the transaction page on many

bit before I do. Maybe 5.0 will come out first <>.

I'd think the only versions with instructions that are useful are those

Thanks for replies. 1) My approach was to leave the GNC backup process as is
