Problem opening KMM file

I assume you mean try to open with the recent compiled version to see 
which transaction keeps me from opening KMM, then search for it via 
Ctl-Alt-F in the most recent version that I have that will open the 
file. 2 problems, Ctl-Alt-F opens Thunar. Ctl-Shift-F opens search in 
KMM but doesn't seem to search for the transaction id.

Second, I think I found one of the problem transactions but I can't edit 
it. I can't delete it, I can't copy it.

I can show transaction details. That shows a closed account on the 
second split which is not the same number when I grepped the file 
(A000242 versus A000432).

Is there a way for me to search for A000432 in KMM?

Note that A000424 has the following line:

<SUBACCOUNT id="A000424"/>

A000432 does not have this line which I suspect is the problem.

When I grep the name of the CD that 424 contains I get a line back with 
both 424 and 432. I have no idea what I'm looking at in this line so 
it's not much help to me.
