OK,
As I said, I started on 1.1.2018 with 'nothing' I entered the closing
balance for 2017 for the a/c and started entering transactions.
Unfortunately, coming from Quicken, I didn't do any reconciliations
until about December. But casually examining the entries from time to
time they seemed 'ok' just a few centimes 'off' probably due to finger
problems, as I had also experienced with Quicken and sorted them at year
end.
The Opening Balance in the latest iteration of reconcile was what I
showed in the screen grab a while back -
While the a/c entries starting entry shows the bank balance figure
€3986.22 and the €5.117.09 ending balance tallies with the bank
statement......
Aha, maybe there is another issue. When I do, as you suggested, View >
Filter By > Status > Reconciled I get nothing!! even when I just chose
'reconcile' or 'select all'
:-( thanks for the help :-)

No, as I said in the original post, I started on 1.1.2018 with
GNU, so the first entry in this a/c should be the opening balance
for the a/c from the bank statement, €3986.22. The ending balance
is correct.
Actually you still haven't stated it clearly. The question is what
does the Opening Balance show when you reconcile? If this is the
first time you have reconciled it then it should show zero (unless the
opening balance has been already reconciled). If it is not zero then
that means some transactions have already been reconciled (possibly
accidentally). If you go to the account and then View > Filter By >
Status > Reconciled then it should show you just the reconciled
transactions. Clear the reconcile state on all these and you should
be good to start the reconcile with a starting balance of zero. Then
the Opening Balance in the account should match the Starting Balance
on your bank statement so you can reconcile that one.

Do the starting and ending balances shown there match the ones on
the bank statement you are reconciling against?

I don't understand where you are seeing the figures you describe. Can
you post a screenshot showing it?
This what I get at the bottom right hand side.
