Please, no.  Can you display the destination account in a drop-down widget, 
just like the one in the "Transfer" column of a register window?  If 
necessary, users would select new accounts the same way that they do when 
using register windows.

(One of the things I hate about Windows software is that every button click 
brings up another modal dialog box, which usually hides some vital piece of 
information in another window while preventing me from using any other part 
of the application.  </grump>)
