Account Report on search results

[Anthony Dardis]

I think I understand now what the report is doing that was puzzling me  
earlier. If you run the Account report on search results on an account  
that gets reconciled (like a credit card account in my case), and the  
search results include both reconciled and unreconciled transactions, the  
total of the Funds Out column will be the total of the unreconciled  
transactions, and the total of the Funds In column will be the total of  
the reconciled transactions.

Is that the way the report is designed?
