Help with importer needed

[Scumbuster]

Hi all

Upon importing a saved OFX file from my bank this morning for my checking
account in Gnucash, I found that the program is wanting to mark all of my
new transactions as either "estimate" or "bank charge"..........

When I was importing before, it was making most items "imbalanced, which was
fine....I would go into imbalance and reassign each transaction to what it
really was (car payment, cc payment, utility etc). 

This may be due to my not understanding how the importer works.....it
confuses me with the check marks etc....

Is there a tutorial somewhere that goes over how the importer works?  I
could not find any info in the help menu.

As it stands, I have to go into each transaction in the importer screen and
mark it "imbalanced, then go and change it once its in the register......a
few transactions I can properly assign in the importer, where it's a single
"split"....but not where one transaction is pslt between, say, dining and
state sales tax.....its painful.

Thanks!
