06:00:27 <warlord> rockfx02: put the balance cell only in the txn line of the cursor so it doesn't appear on the split lines. And I think you should return "" instead of NULL for an empty cell..
06:01:05 <warlord> Bearman: yes, if not under Edit -> Preferences then via a .gtkrc file.

06:20:24 *** warlord is now known as warlord-afk
07:21:26 <rockfx02> warlord: how do I do that? :P Also, returning NULL should be correct as it is what pretty much all the other cell functions do
07:22:20 *** warlord-afk is now known as warlord
07:22:39 <warlord> rockfx02: there should be a way to specify which line of the cursor (for multi-line entries)
07:23:04 <rockfx02> in split-register-layout?
07:24:37 <warlord> Yeah, I think so.
07:24:53 <warlord> (it's been a VERY long time since I've looked at that code)
07:31:24 <rockfx02> alright, i'll take a look.
07:31:28 <rockfx02> thanks, gotta run

12:35:04 <FrozenZia> Hello - extremely stupid question (I guess). The goal is to create a report to tell me: "How much did I spend on LunchAtWork last year?"
12:35:54 <FrozenZia> I did a generic CashFlow report, and that looks good EXCEPT for the LunchAtWork part, which ends up telling me my wife only spent an average of 86 cents per month.
12:36:21 <warlord> FrozenZia: run a P&L report and look at the line for Expenses:LunchAtWork ?
12:36:42 <FrozenZia> I have LunchAtWork acct, and as a SUBaccount to that I have LunchAtWork:Paul.
12:36:48 <FrozenZia> I'll try that warlord.
12:37:45 <FrozenZia> sorry, except tell me what's a P&L report...
12:37:59 <warlord> Sorry, in 2.2 it's called Income Statement
12:38:12 <warlord> in 2.3/2.4 it'll be renamed back to Profit & Loss
12:38:26 <FrozenZia> tx
12:41:37 <FrozenZia> sweet - that got it.
12:42:07 <warlord> :)
12:42:09 <FrozenZia> Any reason it didn't come out right in the CashFlow report?
12:42:36 <warlord> um, maybe because you paid in different ways?
12:42:49 <warlord> The cash flow report works.. differently.. many people get confused.
12:44:39 <FrozenZia> Alright - sounds a good enough explanation for now - would likely go over my head if you went into more detail.
12:44:46 <FrozenZia> THANKS for the help!
12:46:12 <FrozenZia> But so is the P&L / IncomeStatement the best way to answer the question, "Where did all my money go last year?"
12:47:18 <warlord> yes.
12:51:33 <FrozenZia> and in a case of Entertainment 100, Entertainment:Movies 60, that means a TOTAL of 160 spent, not 100 on entertainment, of which 60 was movies and 40 non-specified, right?
12:52:00 <warlord> Depends on the settings you have.
12:52:59 <FrozenZia> ah. for Parent Account Subtotals or something?
12:53:20 <FrozenZia> This software is just WAY too flexible. (I mean that in a good way!)
12:53:22 <warlord> Right.
12:53:39 <FrozenZia> tx again.
