Hello, Yes, deselecting "Multi-split" allowed what I wanted. Thanks very much for your help.
I think that one of the things that confused me before you helped is that until I select and deselect one of the boxes (for example, "multi-split", or one of the other option boxes shown), it doesn't seem to allow me to set the column fields. I think when I had observed this before, I thought this had meant that not selecting any of these boxes was an invalid mode, so I had selected "multi-split", which then allowed me to categorize the columns. I see now that if I select a box, and then deselect it, it allows me to proceed with column categorization and gives me the "transfer account" option, as you mentioned. I did not see the "transfer amount" option you mentioned, but I used "withdrawal", and that seemed to work.
