How can I lock accounts into different currencies?

Asked by Alan Spybey

I've looked at the other references. it seems multiple currencies are possible, but in my installation (after importing a QIF file) whenever I change the currency of one account all the others change as well. How can I lock an account into its specific currency? It's version 5.1.3. I'm on Windows 7 x64. Thanks, Alan

It's due to internal xfer: the rule is same currency for source and target account
if you change the account currency, any internal xfer account destination will change as well.

I made the accounts and tried to assign them to their proper currencies, but each time I assigned a currency to an account, all the accounts would change to that currency.
