Yes I have been running Ubuntu since 8.04 and yesterday I switched to
10.04. Before I did I current back up all my files to my external HD.
Your wxBanker program I was using in 9.1 had the wxBanker folder in my
home directory (hidden) I copied it to a thumb drive along with my
Firefox bookmarks and my Evolution Mail export.
After installing 10.04 I found it it now stored them in
~/.local/share/wxbanker. So I replaced that folder with the one on my
thumb drive. It saw one account and one record, that's it.
I liked your program too bad about the backup situation. May I suggest
you make it a priority to incorporate a import export utility
something like Mail does, it works great.
For now I will now be using a template I found in Open Office (spreadsheets)
Take Care and good luck
Glenn

When I put it back into my new Ubuntu release from my back up drive it does not work. Luckily I did not trust it and had continued to use paper to. I guess I will stick with paper until this program gets polished some more.
