changing how a transfer displays in the register

All transfers simply show as transfer, without showing the account to which it is transferred, in the Mac version register. Is there a way to have the account show as well in the column?

    Here is more detail. I imported a file from the windows version - I am new to the Mac version though I have been using Quicken for PC since version 1. Of the transactions I imported, they kept the links and they show properly. The ones that are presenting a problem are those I downloaded today. Because the export-import from windows to Mac did not keep the downloaded but not entered transactions, I had to go back to the beginning of February. Everything that was downloaded in this round was automatically categorized by Quicken, which means I have to go through each transaction and recategorize it - a nightmare, particularly since I have numerous accounts. In those downloaded transactions, even when I go into one to edit, it shows Transfer: [acct#####], but only the word Transfer shows up in the column on the main register page.

    That is what I want to change - the word Transfer tells me essentially nothing - I want to see at a glance where that money went.

    Thanks!

    update - all of a sudden they started displaying properly....not quite sure why or what I did to change things - not conscious of having done anything. Thanks for your help.
