I'm afraid no, there is no way to modify multiple transactions at once.
You'll have to go down each one and fix it manually.  However you should
be able to do it relatively easily by using a combination of TAB the
Return key.

Start at the first transaction, tab out and fix the number by either
entering it in the correct column and emptying out the other column, or
changing the number to a negative number in-place (tab into the column
with the number, hit the left arrow, and then hit the minus key).  Then
hit return to record the change and go to the next line.  Lather, rinse,
repeat until you're done.

Good Luck,
