Ah. Well that's progress. Now at least the transactions also appear correctly in the GBP accounts, 
but they dont seem to be working. I mean I have tried a simpler approach than the one I posted 
involving Currency:Sterling and :Euro. Now I just have (for a Visa cash advance in UK):

Assets:Current Assests:Cash (Sterling)    20
Expenses:Banking Fees                     2
Imbalance-EUR                             9.07
Liabilities:Visa                                31.07

Despite having right clicked and edited the Exchange Rate on the Assets:Current Assests:Cash 
(Sterling) split and set it to the correct value. That imbalance should be accounted for by the rate!?

Sorry to be dense!

Alan.
