Thanks for emailing the list Ram.
I have done a very simple test and found my self able to "void" and
immediately "unvoid" a single transaction.
I didn't save my work so I didn't find myself with a transaction I
couldn't edit.

Could you please let us know
(1) OS
(2) Version of Gnucash
(3) Database or compressed xml storage
(4) Are you using trading accounts
(5) Are these share transactions?
??

Some people who understand accounting procedures much better are going
to explain the value of "reversing transactions" instead of "void" and
"unvoid".

Please take the time to provide more information.
