Cash flow report.....frustration treasur2 09-03-2006

 No matter how I enter it I can't get my inflows to equal my outflows.
I've been using quicken longer than I'll admit, and I can't get it to
equal.

Now I don't mean its off my cents or a couple of bucks. But I mean I'm
showing 40K in income and 26k in outflow.

I've turned offf "external transfers all" to keep from including
transfers, I've also INCLUDED ALL accounts for reporting purpuses.

I know I'm just missing something stupid. I also know this is a loaded
question that can be much more complicated than it appears. So please
unload on me with " did you do this, that, and the other thing."

yes, I've included taxes and even have all accounts
balancing.........except my cash account which I just made up a
category for called "z-unknown". This allows me to zero it out at the
end of the month so all inflows are not just hanging in this account.

please help.

Why don't you tell everyone why you expect your "inflows" to
equal your "outflows" ... and in what specific way Quicken
indicates that your "inflows" do not equal your "outflows"..

Because they have to over long periods of
time................."years"..........or your bankrupt.

the specific way is a cash flow report. Which includes your inflows and
outflows.

So, if your inflows continually, "over long periods of time",
exceed your outflows, you will go bankrupt?
