>> When the register is in split view the header changes depending on the selected row. When the selected transaction is in split view the transaction row has nothing in the account or reconcile column; those headings are accordingly blank; the transaction row has the date, the number, the description, along with the total (really net) credit or debit and the balance for the selected register and the header labels reflect that. Move the focus to a split row and the headers change to action, memo, account, reconcile status, debit, and credit reflecting the split information that's displayed in the selected row.

Certainly possible. Bob Fewell, do you know where is the code that hides it?
