Changing the default bank account

I recently changed banks, set that new bank account up in Quickbooks, had to use the old one for a while until I set up everything that is involved when changing banks. I have now closed the old account, but it still comes up as the default bank account for all my transactions: payments, payroll, etc. How do I change the default bank account to my new one?

I knew this, but I could not get to it for love or money! Thanks, a great community forum... 🙂
