Thank you Adrien,
That's what I will need to do - do some in depth reading of the Help
Manual and Tutorial.
Best regards,
Neal

I'm not certain what you are describing, but I'll hazard a guess that
you are seeing GnuCash auto-balance the transaction. That is normal.
Every transaction has to be balanced. (Debits *must* equal Credits)
You are free to enter the transaction however you like, as long as
that holds true. If your self-entered amounts do not result in equal
Debits & Credits, GnuCash will create a split initially not assigned
to any account, but when you commit the transaction and that split
remains, it will be assigned to the account labeled: 'Imbalance-XXX'
(where XXX is a currency code) for the difference.
Please read the GnuCash Help Manual and the Tutorial & Concepts Guide
available in the Help Menu, or online, as you are learning the
software. Then if you get stuck, come back and ask for help here.
Regards,
Adrien

When I do the View > Transaction and put in individual numbers for
each item in the Withdrawal column, it starts to mess with my
figures. It puts in a number at the very top. It adds deposits to
other entries. What I end up with is a mish-mash of costs that the
program seems to think that I need for some mythical number it has
come up with.
That's exactly what happened previously. I don't want it adding
numbers, or changing numbers. I just want to put in the correct
values for each line, including tax, hit return and have the final
value show up on the first line of the transaction.
I obviously don't know what I am doing.
Help!
