hi Greg, Hi everyone here.
So, let me make a summary of my experience.
After seraching on the web for bits of information, I
finally saved my account in the .xml format. This
solved my problem. Xml seems to be the native format
for Gnucash. The problem is that I didn't know it
until I got serious problems :-)
And finally it is a similar solution to the one you
experience, in .qif.
I still did not install the 1.8.12 version, anyway it
doesnt really matter now, it works :-)
Thanks !
Sebastien
