John, I had a similar incident a few months back, and found that the missing amount was in a hidden bucket that I had forgotten about.
Another help, in 1.4.x there is a "buckets balance" on the bottom bar. I believe that should always equal "balance" when you've selected the last transaction in the register. Kevin added that total as another tool for helping folks like us figure out what might be going on. But I see Kevin has offered to look at your MW file. I'm sure he'll be able to figure out where the missing money is. Thanks, Rick Reynolds -- Win95 is not a virus; a virus does something.
