That's the right idea; and it doesn't matter if one uses Web
Connect or not. In fact, it doesn't matter if one enters the
transaction in Quicken before doing a download ... it only
matters that the transaction is entered in Quicken before its
downloaded equivalent is "Accept"ed into the Quicken account
register (so that the downloaded transaction will be given the
Status of "Match" before it is Accepted).
