Hi,

in one of the transactions, set the transfer account to be the other account.  
Delete the surplus transaction.

i.e. in the bank account register, select the payment transaction, and 
manually set the transfer account to be credit card.  Your credit card will 
then be show 2 payments - delete the one which is not from the bank account, 
and all should be correct.

HTH,
Maf.
