although I understand your thinking, your analogy has helped me see where

Thanks for your suggestion but I haven't found the 'Balance Forecast' report
in the version I'm using.
I'm also not looking for a report but simply want to be able to see future

visible screen when the window

wanted. Unfortunately, I then had to edit all of my Scheduled Transactions

If you still haven't updated to the latest version, I would recommend

it does allow me to check back for errors later.
