Tax Tables - an illustrated primer?

Alain, sometimes Windows does some weird things if its settings get messed up. Next time you want to see if it is already running try Alt-Tab several times to see all the programs that are running. There are other ways to check as well. David C On Sep 2, 2017 3:26 AM, "Alain Dormoy" wrote:

Solved. Removed ~/.conf/dbus directory and it was regenerated when  GnuCash restarted. It works fine now. Thanks everyone for your time. On 09/02/2017 07:07, Geert Janssens wrote: On zaterdag 2 september 2017 15:57:01 CEST John Ralls wrote: On Sep 2, 2017, at 1:56 AM, Geert Janssens wrote:>

For some reason, yelp (yelp-2.28.1-17.el6_3.x86_64) crashes when reading the GnuCash help files (using the Help menu item). Is there some other tool that can be used to read them? Or some way to convert them to some other format? -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 Deepwoods Software

Re : Re : Could not obtain the lock

Thank you David. I don't think I'm starting GC more times than I'm shutting it down. If it's running I access it through the icon at the base of my desk, it's only if the icon is missing that I "start" GC. If I don't intend to use it for a long while I save whatever still needs to be saved and
