How can I add check boxes to select Accounts in customized budget report in QW2014

When I attempted to create a budget report for spending (or other report) I wanted to pick only select accounts for the report as I've done in past versions of quicken.

In quicken 2014 home and business, When I try to customize the report I click on the accounts tab in order to pick select accounts for the report. All of my accounts are listed but there are no check boxes next to the accounts to select the accounts I want.

I tried chat and she had me change my windows compatibility from windows 7 (which I have) to windows xp sec pak 3. That changed my computer resolution and we weren't able to return the resolution to a normal state as much as WE tried. When I asked why Q-2014 was not windows 7 compatible she said it was but couldn't explain why I had to change to windows xp.

    Was able to get the check boxes back running:


    Right click the shortcut on the desktop, select properties. On the Compatibility tab uncheck "Run this program in compatibility mode for:"


    [Not sure if it matters but under Privilege Level "Run this program as an administrator"]

    A few days ago, I had a very long chat session with a Quicken Help person. We tried lots of ideas, and she told me just the opposite--to check the the compatability tab that says "Run this program in compatility mode." It was already checked in my system, so that seemed like a nonstarter. We never did solve the problem, so I deleted Q2014 and went back to Q2011. I need to able to select specific accounts for various reports. What were the programmers thinking?!

    Today I upgraded from Quicken 04 all the way to Quicken 2014.  I am not happy at all with the reports under the customize tab in 14.  I use Quicken for  my business and have to be able to select accounts to show up in my reports.  Not Working.  Also, the "Tax related" check box under the "advanced" tab wasn't working like it did in Quicken 04. Were the reports in Quicken 2011 functioning properly? If so, I may dump 14, go see if I can find 11, and keep myself from being so frustrated. Or, Intuit had better get their act together and fix 14.  Fast.

    Extraordinary--I've been using the 2011 version for three years, and it worked like a charm. But last week I was told that Q2011 would no longer support investment downloads after April 30. So I bought Q2014 and then dumped it after one day. I think you'll find that the 2011 version has the features you're looking for. Best of luck.
