Do you know at the time of entering the deposit which sub-accounts and amounts? If so, I would be tempted to deposit directly to the sub-accounts and then reconcile including all sub-accounts. While entering I would click on the reconciliation column and change it from an n to a c (just clicking will accomplish that). That way they are already check-marked when you do reconciliation. --Steve -- Stephen M Butler, PMP, PSM stephen.m.butle...@gmail.com kg...@arrl.net 253-350-0166 ------------------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 8A25 9726 D439 758D D846 E5D4 282A 5477 0385 81D8
