    OK... I'm a fairly new user so please bear with me.
    I'm wanting to use gnucash as a check register but occasionally =
download qif's from my bank to make sure that I haven't missed anything. =
I did and import last week and everything seemed fine. I did an import =
today and the import duplicated all the checks that had cleared my bank =
instead of "divining" that check #4444 that was D/L'd is actually check =
#4444 that I had entered in my register.=20
    Shouldn't my checks show up in the importer as potential dupes? The =
only thing I can figure is that the checks are imported with the name =
"CHECK" with a transaction type of "UNSPECIFIED" and the trans type is =
throwing the whole thing off. But, you'd think that gnucash would notice =
the check number and "figure it out".
