Hi Dave,

Can you list the extensions you have installed?  Also, have you reconciled, batch-changed, or done anything differently?  Have you perhaps matched/merged downloaded transactions in another account (or the affected account) which may have touched transactions in that account?

I would certainly make sure to make a backup of your backups, just to avoid MD auto-removing older backup files that may contain a good version of the data.

Thanks,
Sean

Eventually I found that an entry from some years back that involved a transaction in USD converted to GBP had decided to re calculate the exchange rate - hence the error. I fixed that one and for a few weeks things have been OK.

Upon investigation I find that virtually every transaction in the system that involves a transfer between accounts has had the cleared flag removed. Even after fixing that for the credit card account the remaining balance is incorrect.
