02:07:15 <adabo> How do you set up gnucash for getting out of debt?
02:10:01 <warlord> adabo: You keep track of all your expenses and then see where all your money is going .. and then change your habits to reduce those expenditures.
02:11:28 <adabo> warlord: That's true, and is helping, but maybe is there an implementation for showing how much you need to get out and when you've gone down?
02:13:24 <warlord> mmmmmmm... not that I can think of.
02:13:31 <warlord> gnucash doesn't really do future projections.
02:14:34 <warlord> in any event, it's bedtime here. I'll be back in ~8-9 hours.

06:27:58 <adabo> With v2.3, can you edit the csv to include a premade transfer column in order to skip the screen of manually selecting accounts?

10:07:08 <AlexStacey> hi, does anyone know if gnucash can export to "tas" or "sage line 150" format, or if there are any conversion utilities to do such a thing?

10:45:40 <warlord> adabo: i dont think so
10:45:49 <warlord> AlexStacey: i dont think so either
10:48:31 <AlexStacey> warlord: i see. do you know of any other formats that can be converted/exported to? i want to share some books with an accountant who doesn't know gnucash

11:23:35 <adabo> I would like to backup my account. The whole book. Can gnucash do it and how?
11:24:49 <jsled> adabo: http://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/FAQ#Q:_How_do_I_backup_my_GC_environment.2C_including_preferences.3F
11:25:42 <adabo> I'm sorry, but what does that mean?
11:26:06 <jsled> which part is unclear?
11:26:28 <adabo> everything after "not only your..."
11:26:51 <adabo> is it an option?
11:27:02 <jsled> it's not something you would do using gnucash.
11:27:18 <jsled> Your gnucash datafile is just a datafile … like a word document or a spreadsheet or a PNG file.
11:27:29 <jsled> The filename will be in the titlebar when gnucash is running.
11:27:38 <jsled> That is the primary and copy file to backup.
11:27:57 <jsled> As well, you could copy the .xac and .log files in the same directory as your datafile.
11:28:40 <jsled> And, further, the directories mentioned to get all other preferences.
11:29:17 <adabo> Goodnes
11:30:15 <adabo> Ok. Not a complaint, but I'm not good at this, but I'll try. It is opensource afterall

15:08:26 <KaiForce> i'm a National City Bank customer that was transitioned to PNC Bank (who bought out National City.) They support direct connect for Quicken - is is possible that I'll be able to use OFX/GnuCash or should I be looking for an alternative way to download transactions from PNC?
15:39:18 <intangir> i read it can do all of that
15:39:31 <intangir> none of my banks let me do it without paying extra money.. per month
15:39:34 <intangir> so im not using it

16:03:06 <KaiForce> National City did allow it for free. Apparently so does PNC for Quicken users. I don't know if the protocol is the same for Quicken / GnuCash. I'd love to document it because I'm sure there are others in my situation

18:16:01 <adabo> how do you copy/paste numbers from one column to ther other. ie, Expense -> Rebate
18:19:37 <warlord> add a negative sign to the front
18:24:09 *** Demitar has quit IRC
18:24:58 <adabo> yeah?
18:26:14 <adabo> well that works :) Good tip! Thanks!
