I heartily recommend the 5.0 update.  I am, I confess, a low demand user as I use it as a checkbook for non-business use and manage my investments elsewhere.  I normally wait a little longer to update out of an abundance of caution but decided to go for it now.  The drop down list for entering

I would recommend v5.0 as it's now stable. I've been running the betas and now 5.0 on my Windows 10 machine. If by chance you do encounter a bug, it would help the team by reporting it and you can easily just install 4.14 if needed. On Mon, Mar 27, 2023 at 9:37 AM Dr. David Kirkby <

The million dollar question: Should I upgrade to GNC 5.0 or update to 4.14? I am predominately on Windows 11 platform but I am NOT a business user. Can both versions co-exist so that differences in fundamentals, should there be, can be bubbled up? To all those that work hard towards these

Thanks, Christopher. I wonder if you or anyone else has experience with the 'use accumulated amounts' feature in the conventional budget report. I use the YTD budget report often and need it. If the 'use accumulated amounts' is working well in newer versions I have less qualms abut upgrading.

YTD budget will definitely be affected because it's unmaintained and old. The good news is the conventional budget report will have similar functionality called "use accumulated amounts". On Fri, 1 Nov 2019, 06:56 larry johnston, wrote: > Hi, > > Just to followup. > > If 2.6.15 is working for

Hi, Just to followup. If 2.6.15 is working for me there is no need to upgrade. If I want to upgrade I should upgrade to 2.6.21 first. Do you know how ytd-budget.scm will be affected if I upgrade? I don't want to lose this report. Thanks, Larry On Thu, Oct 31, 2019 at 1:40 PM Adrien

I don’t download any data either, and have had no issues that I needed to upgrade for. I just like keeping with the most current version for bug fixes. You should probably upgrade to 2.6.21 first. That is the last version that can read a 3.x file if you need to go backwards for some reason.
