Greg,
Usually, when your bank or credit card company creates a CSV file for you,
either deposits are positive and withdrawals are negative, or vice versa.
Whichever you see, you then call the amounts deposits or withdrawals when
performing the import, and GnuCash assigns the value to the Debit or credit
column as appropriate.
The key is to correctly tag the value column as deposit or withdrawal when
importing the file.
