 Hi all -

I have 3 years worth of checkbook registry entries, which of course
include deposits and checks.

None of them have been reconciled in QB (all entires have a clear
"check" column).

My issue is... I do not have those older bank statements to reconcile
against, my oldest is 08/2007. So I'd like to use a recent 4/30/2008
statement for my "ending balance" info.... But what do I put in there
for my "beginning balance"? The very first transaction (in 2005) in
the checkbook registry is an "opening balance" of $5.95 - how do I
modify that $0.00 Quickbooks has in the Reconcile window?...

Completely confused... this is sooo different than Quickbooks... ahhh!!

I'm assuming you mean Quicken. Lets own up to the truth here. Even if you
had to perform this in Quicken you would have no idea what to do.

Learning how to reconcile cash from newsgroup posts is really not an
option.

I will give you a hint. I would not be concerned with the open balance of
zero on the bank reconcilation window. It should be zero, after all you
never did a bank reconcilation so all QB knows is zero. I would also start
with the oldest statement not the current version. You will need to plug
assuming that you made some sort of error(s) in entering your data over the
years.

Then why is QuickBooks so different than QuickBooks? Now I'm confused.
