[GNC] Random negative income totals have appeared

[G R Hewitt]

Thanks Chris for your suggestion. I have sorted it; I think there must have
been some corruption somewhere
as restoring a back up file and re-entering the transactions all went as
expected.
I don't think it was anything to do with the trading account as the
discrepancies were totally random.

Thanks anyway
