David and David, Thanks for the info. I would like an import option to import the new data and retain the existing data, perhaps show all of the data in the split view.

Paul In my experience it depends on which method you use. I usually use the OFX import and if I choose update the new text replaces the existing so I often either choose match which keeps the existing text or add to keep.the existing transaction intact so I can manually merge text later.

When I import transactions, GC proposes to match some of the imported transactions with transactions in my file. GC highlights these transactions in green. These transactions do not have identical data in the date, description, and notes fields. What happens to the non-identical data in the description and notes fields? Which date survives the match.
