When you have the curser in a split line of a transaction, the word 'Tot'
disappears. You only see that when the curser is in boxes that are not a
part of a split line.

Maf,
No I don't have any extra splits in the payment transaction.
Thanks for the thought.

From the perspective of the credit card account register, ‘decrease’ for the

Hi ChinaBl

It is account is under the Liabilities and labeled as a Credit account.
Note: it shows deposits on left and withdrawals on right. Is that because it

I figured it was probably a preferences issue. I did check the account and

Ok, the next thing to do is to go into your register view and look at the
running total next to each of the transactions that you show in your

Mike,
I did do it the old way eg: pen and paper and checked so I did not overlook

If the reconcile window shows the same starting balance as your
