Problem Reconciling with Lost Check

Hi,

Quoting Bill Michal <portabill at bak.rr.com>:

Are you sure that you entered in the correct ending balance in the
dialog at the start of the reconciliation process?  Most likely you
just accepted what gnucash gave you instead of typing in the actual
ending balance from your bank statement.
