Thanks for attempting to help, but if you read the previous messages in the thread, you'll see that we already have set this option and it only affects some, but not all of the reports. In fact, some of the most important accounting reports ignore the setting and it still has to be set manually when you run them.  QB never fixed this issue, which is a simple item to programmatically fix (duh... a radio button default based on a preference setting). Instead, they ignored the issue in the desktop version.  Now that they have "retired" the non-subscription based application, it will never get fixed.  Shame on QB for ignoring things like this.
