Jeffrey,

My regular procedure involves intentionally deleting some OFX imported transactions after I have replaced them with transactions that have more detailed descriptions and I have found that if I re-run an old OFX import file, those transactions will import again.  So in your case, I would expect missing transactions to re-appear without any special editing of the import files.  Because I have the room on my backup devices, I never delete old OFX files, I just move them to different folders.

I'm not going into great detail here but I had a surge suppressor  strip explode when I turned it off.  It is way out of its warranty period so no help there. It fried my server, laptop, printer, 3 external drives, 3 USB Backuo drives, and 2 SSD drives ( which i just found out are non-recoverable , period).  But thankfully not the drives my GNC datafiles were on.

Anyways, my question to the GNC community is that I imported an account via OFX and forgot to reconcile it.  Know I find out that there are several hundred transactions that were never imported.

How can I convince  GNC to import the missing transactions via OFX?  And do not ask me which version of GNC I was running because I do not remember and cannot access that drive.  98% of the time I was running GNC under Ubuntu (I hate  WindoZe and very seldom use it).
