Thanks for the tip about not changing the subject.

As I said below, both the windows, "Payment From"
(which should highlight the interest account I used last month)
and the "Reconcile Account" (the account I'm reconciling - the savings account)
highlight the same account that I'm trying to reconcile.
I always have to manually highlight the Income Interest account.

That highlight is correct for the "Reconcile Account", but it's not
the correct account for the "Payment From" window. That one
should be the interest account, which should be the same one
that I used the last month.

Here is info from the Help Manual Chapter 5:

"The Payment From pane contains a list of accounts where you can select the 
source account.

        Note
If the payment is for a credit or loan account then usually the payment would 
be from an Expense account. If the payment is for a checking or savings account 
then usually this would be from an Income account.?

What is the incorrect account that the window is preselecting? Is it an income 
account?

Savings accounts usually earn interest, while credit accounts usually cost you 
interest.

Also, please when sending a ?follow up? like you did here, do not change the 
subject line, just reply to the same thread. Otherwise, you end up with two 
threads neither of which have all the info in them. Someone might not see one 
or the other when replying.

Regards,
Adrien

Sorry, I should have included this more specific info...

In the 'Payment Information" window,
the "Payment From" and "Reconcile Account" are always
initially the same account which is not very useful.

The previous month I reconciled the same account and
under "Payment From"  I selected the interest account, but
the following month it goes back to initially selecting the
same account as is in the "Reconcile Account" window
and I have to select the desired account again every month.
