Mary Lou, If the amounts are the same for two transactions and one of them is coming from an import, which means that it will appear in the Last Import smart bucket, then the only thing left for you to do is to make sure the day range on the Duplicates view is large enough to cover the spread of days different between the two transactions. The only other reasons that these two wouldm't match is if they were different types (check versus withdrawal, etc.) or if they were both imported from different file types and have different hidden external IDs. You can see the external ID of a transaction by hovering your cursor over the Transaction Detail title bar and looking at the tooltip that appears. A manual merge is coming in 1.5 to handle the cases where MoneyWell won't see two transactions as matching. For the other issue with an end of day balance, you simply need to look at the running balance amount next to the last transaction for that day if that's all your bank gives you. This should be less trouble than trying to match up running balances when the sequence of transactions is different on your bank statement and in your software register.
