Description Shawn Mullen 2009-05-22 03:09:33 UTC
Please describe the problem:
I created a budget.  I can view the budget report for the budget.  When I click File->Open->Open Budget and new budget is displayed.  I do not see a way to open an existing budget.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create Budget
2. Select File->Open->Open Budget
3. 


Actual results:
New budget is dislayed.

Expected results:
Most recent budget displayed, or a list of created budgets to choose from.

Does this happen every time?
yes

What tells you that it is a new budget?  What I've seen is that if there is 1 budget, it is opened, and if there is more than 1 budget, a list is presented.

"What tells you that it is a new budget?" - When the budget is opened it is blank.  The Budget report however, displays my budget.

Since I posted this bug, I created a new budget.  It replaced the one I had before.

Well, after creating 3 budgets, I finally got the popup list of budgets.  I did not see this until after I created 3 budgets and then clicked Open Budget.

This can be closed.  In the trunk build 2.4.99 r20741, the Open Budget menu item is now under Actions->Budget->Open Budget.

The budget list was displayed after creating two budgets and then selecting the Open Budget option (with all existing budgets closed).

Thanks,
-Tim

Tested in Windows, version 2.6.3. Working as described in Comment 4.
