Andrew:
All the problems were in investment accounts.
There were actually three problems. Two of them were easier to spot,
as they occurred in a Janus account I had closed a couple of years
ago. These transactions were actually valid transactions that should
have been in another account, so I moved them (another question I
asked in this same newsgroup).
The third transaction, also with an investment account, was a Transfer
In from the same account (which didn't have that much money to
transfer in to...and no indication of money being debited out). I
have yet to figure out where that transaction came from. The amount
didn't show up in any other transactions in my system. I simply
deleted it (and, sadly, lowered my net worth by the 11%).
