I have had to do this from time to time when trying to reconcile
transactions and trying to reconcile accounts. I too have 'fooled
around so much' and made a mess of things. I have reconciled a whole
year's worth of transactions only to find I just butchered two accounts.
I've adopted two principles to mitigate problems;
1. back-up my file before attempting a big operation like
reconciliation or importing
2. well, there isn't a #2
The back-up is king.

Hello,
GC 5.9 on a mac mini using sonoma 14.6.1. I made a futile attempt to
balance my cash starting with the credit line account and then going
to cash. Used the bank statements to guide my entries. The problem
was that there was an entry in the credit line statement which didn't
show up on the cash statement. I fooled around so much that I had to
change a whole month of cash entries from reconciled to not
reconciled. Then I tried several techniques to change the cash
entries to match the bank statement. Now I have a garbage cash list
and none of the entries I made to fix things are not showing up in my
general journal or my cash statement.
The only thing I can see to do now is to go back to an earlier backup
of GC and re-enter the bank statement entries and forget about the
credit line statement. Any comments? Thanks.
Rick
