First, regarding my recent post re. "incorrect starting balance in
reconcile," thanks to everyone who helped.  The many replies helped me
understand a couple of things:

1.  the find is limited to the dates in the current filter if you execute it
while on the account tab that is being filtered.  I had not used the view
filter much before, so this had not come up. 
2.  the reconcile includes ALL reconciled transactions, even those after the
date being reconciled.

Once I understood this, I selected Show All in the filter, and the Find for
reconciled found a reconciled transaction that I had accidentally changed
the date on to one well after the period I was reconciling.

The comments of many people that a problem had never been found with
reconcile, along with comments that led me to the above solved the problem. 

I've been using GnuCash for years and I've never had a problem that I could
not figure out by reading the forums until recently, but I was in a bit of a
rush on this one, so I thought I would post it.  It is nice to know that the
forum people are so responsive.

I did post a reply that I had solved the problem because there were so many
people that helped that I only posted it once, rather than replying to
everyone.  Is there a place in the thread on the forum that I can post the 
"solution" with a thank you note?  I looked but did not see anything like
that, so I decided to post this as a new thread.

Thanks to everyone for the help.
