I'm have been using GnuCash 1.8.8 for the last 9 months for my business accounts. My accountant has just ask me for my account in a spreadsheet format - I'd be happy with CSV. I can't find anyway in GnuCash to export to anything other than xml. Is there anyway to export to spreadsheet - even via a third party tool? Many thanks, Stuart. -- --------------------------------------- Stuart Bailey BSc (hons) CEng CITP MBCS LinuSoft (Proprietor) Linux Specialist (01953) 601294 (07778) 383739 http://www.linusoft.co.uk ---------------------------------------- ********************************************************************** This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential.

As with many import/export issues its often beneficial to turn the question on its head: if you're trying to *export* something form one program, can you actually *import* it form another? And OpenOffice.org calc will allow you to import (via 'open' or 'insert') a number of file formats, including CSV. Cheers, Ricahrd

A quick search of gnucash-devel threw up an XSL transform to Gnumeric: http://xslfactory.free.fr/ Let us know if it works, please. -- MJ Ray (slef), K. Lynn, England, email see http://mjr.towers.org.uk/
