Operator error here -- I was wrong when I said it worked. However, I do see an error message, and I see what's going on. The archived amounts include the totals for the virtual transactions, appropriately enclosed in parentheses. That would suggest (to me) that the amounts don't need to balance. However, the error message I get indicates that the transaction doesn't balance, and that it's off by the total of the virtual transactions. I can run reports successfully if I balance the transaction with the appropriate entry *without* the parentheses. -- John Rakestraw
