I am using a recently installed v5.2.2 and see the accounts on the account list in reverse alpha sequence. I asked my son, a long time kMyMoney user on version 4.8(?). He has an option on that list to control the order. I don’t have that choice. Where is the option to control the order? TIA

Usually, the younger generation is ahead of us oldies, but in your case it seems the other way around 😃

Here’s how to change the sorting order:

Hope that helps.

Thanks. BTW, “younger generation”? I’ve been coding for over 55 years, Wiz.

By the younger generation I meant your son 🙂
