Memorized Transaction Issue

Hi All
I installed GC 2.0.2 this weekend and was quite happy to see it
compile and run successfully. I've been using 1.x for about seven
years with a great deal of success. My environment is FreeBSD 6.1.
I seem to be having a non-fatal, but severe issue where register
entries that are to a known merchant do not allow me to alter the
dollar value from the last entry.
With 1.x, I've grown accustomed to tabbing across a register row and
having the account-name value auto-populate (if the merchant is known
from a previous entry). I could then enter a new dollar value and tab
again - this would complete the transaction entry... Very quick - very
simple.
In 2.0.2, what I see in the same scenario is my cursor skipping over
the account field (which remains _blank_) and then having the cursor
being placed in the "Increase" dollar-value field (I'm entering CC
purchases, so it skips over the "decrease" field as it should). Upon
entering the new value in the field and hitting tab, I notice that the
transaction is entered into the register, but the dollar value I
provided is replaced with the value of the last transaction I entered
with this merchant.
I am able to go back to the entered transaction and change the dollar
value, but this is, of course, unacceptable for day-to-day use. I
don't want to have to enter my transactions twice. :)
Transactions that are entered for "new", unknown merchants work just fine.
Any ideas?
Thanks very much.
