Let's take a simple example of a grocery expense; you go to Kroger and
spend $25 from Cash.  To enter this in GnuCash you would open your Cash
account register, put in the date, Kroger in the description, then
Expenses:Groceries in the transfer column, and $25 in the Credit (or
Spend, or Withdrawal) column.

Most likely your problem is that you are opening up the Cash account and
then putting the Cash account into the transfer account as well.

I hope this helps?
