David,
No, I found out very quickly that return causes that sort of result.
Best regards,
Neal

Neal,
By chance are you using the enter key during your editing?
That triggers the full transactiion calculatkions. Use arrow keys, ta b
key or mouse buttons until you are ready to see the transaction calculation.
I think calculztions within individual amount fields happen as soon as you
move out of that field unless you are creating a scheduled transaaction.

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.

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!
Neal
