if that is the case than changing to the next line down in the list of
splits should change the 'total' box? -- however it does not...
selecting the various items in the split transaction list does not
change any item above... and it seems to pick one at random to show
(for example right now on one transaction its showing the 3rd split...
and will not show any other when i select)
