Transactions locked

[Jill Terry]

Thanks David.  I couldn't edit the transactions in the original 
account.  Yep, tried editing from all accounts associated with it. 
Didn't know about the repair function, thanks. I think that Greg has 
probably hit the nail on the head and that the original account was an 
A/R, I then changed my mind and used a simple asset account.

Could you tell me how I can re-reconcile the bank account?

Cheers
