Glad to hear you got it squared away.

I'm not sure if this has to do with my SX preferences, but I no longer get a pop-up window for variables. There is an entry field in the Since Last Run dialog to enter them. (which I have to Tab out of to commit) That may have been implemented after 2.6.19 though. I haven't used variables in several years to notice when the change happened.

Regards,

Update -- 2.6.19 does prompt only once per variable, after all.

I thought it did, because, when the transaction fires, the UI for
prompting for an amount and accepting is pretty confusing (to me,
anyway). I entered the amount and clicked the OK button, but was
immediately prompted again for the same variable. By experimentation I
found that I have to press Enter after entering the amount, and _then_
click OK. (I'm using 2.6.19, so maybe the interface is a little clearer
in later versions.)

Now that I understand how the interface works, I have set up my mortgage
payment transaction as described below, and tested it successfully with
"Since Last Run".
