Thanks John, just what I needed to know.
Jim...
PS: regarding your confusion with the 1st two sentences of the original
post - I didn't know what else to call the account. Quicken calls it a
"cash flow account" (as opposed to an "investment" account or a "property
and debt account") in the account bar on the left of the screen. However,
if YOU are confused then I know I am not describing it properly. BTW,
that's a compliment.
