Avoiding Duplication when Downloaded particular accounts

I have 20 accounts at a brokerage firm, and five of them are wrong (balances don't jive with my account at that house as seen on line). I want to delete those five accounts and re-install or download them. I get to the Quicken window that lists ALL 20 accounts, only five of which I want to re-install. My options for the "good" 15 accounts are "add" or "ignore." I don't want to add them again (they are already there) and I don't want to "ignore" them. How do I configure those 15 accounts so that I ONLY add the five accounts that I have deleted.

    Hi @pso,

    The "Ignore" button just indicates that you don't want to change or affect those accounts in connection with the current action.  If you click on "Ignore" for the 15 accounts that are okay - Quicken will ignore them only with respect to the action you want to take on the five that you want to fix.

    Thank you; I was concerned that "ignore" would result in the removal of those accounts.
