I just set up a completely new books using 'exports accounts' from a previous. So it was empty of transactions.
Then I imported a few hundred transactions from a bank statement via a .csv file.And they are all wrong.The system did  not offer me an 'amount' column but only 'increase' or 'decrease' and I picked the wrong one.Best advice i can find anywhere on how to reverse that is to select and delete many transactions at once via selecting many.
the trouble is i cannot find a way to 'bulk select'.  I can only ever select one transaction.
Fortunately this is entirely new, as I say, so I could start again.
A bit of a nuisance, though.  I had to manually enter all the 'target accounts' for the system didn't recognise them.  So I am thinking if I can empty this current one then a re import the right way round this time and i won't have to re-enter all those account associations.
