[moneydance] Transaction matching rules

[David Delmonte]

Elana, I think you're telling me this can be done. Could I please ask  
you to walk me through a sample transaction.

Sorry, I'm a long time Quicken user and am new to MoneyDance. I have  
to learn all over again.

Thank you for helping.

David

After downloading the first set of transactions, make sure the  
category is
set to the other account.  Then when you download the secondary account,
match the transaction to the existing entry in the registry.
