QB can do annual, quarterly, monthly or daily comparisons for many
years. For a 3 year annual comparison change a standard P&L, balance
sheet, etc., to make the date start at the beginning of the first 
year and end at the end of the last. Then Total by years. You also 
do not see the above bug this way unless you must compare a current 
and prior February side by side.
