When I enter a check, it ignores the second decimal place when it figures the balance. For example, if the previous balance was $1972.50 and I write a check for $30.42, the resulting balance is $1942.10.
My original problem has been solved. Somehow a preference had been set improperly. If anyone else has this problem, I'll let you know what fixed it for me.
Personally speaking - Gnucash always was a nightmare for me.
I'm not just wild about it myself, but at it'll do for right now.
Finally installed Moneydance a couple of years ago. No problems since then. the best 25$ (or so) i've ever spent. no more chasing obscure libraries etc., currency conversions that work each time etc. have you tried it?
I'll give it a try some time soon. Thanks for the suggestion. T. Daniel
