There is no method for completely clearing out all "budget data" and starting with an "empty budget". Deleting "budget data" is a tedious line-by-line delete process. Attempting to start with NO "budget data" file causes myBudget to crash. Loading sample budget, perform one line addition, save to a new file via SAVE AS, then remove all lines but the added line, restart myBudget and it crashes with Python data format errors. The SAVE button in the toolbar does not appear to do anything - nothing shows up in a KTRACE output. Starting myBudget with an empty data file causes it to crash. Recent File list is hidden well enough to make it difficult to override what myBudget has collected (ie; remove one or more data files from the list, especially one that is empty). Not sure about the hardcoded Windows directory "D:\\Program Files" being good, bad, or indifferent under Unix with no Windows filesystem installed or attached (eg; I don't dual-boot Unix and Windows - don't use Windows at all). Nice idea, but not user friendly for new users, impossible to create a "budget plan" from scratch (ie; no previously existing "budget data file"), unsure about required data formats (are dollar signs automatically added/assumed in "money fields"?), are "numeric fields" trully numeric, or just strings? Farily nice HELP facility, AbiWord export works OK - didn't test Gnumeric export. >How-To-Repeat: >Fix: Deinstall myBudget. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
