Yes, the terminology can get in the way!
I thought I had succeeded at doing the copy/paste during an entry a
long time ago but now I may need to go back and check and see if there
isn't some error!
Thank you for not pestering me to get current with my Quicken. My 2002
Basic does everything I need it to do for now. I'm sure something will
eventually come along that forces me to upgrade but until then I'll
stay put.
And for now I'll use the QIF method of exchange when I have a need to
copy a similar split transaction.
