After BoA migration - have duplicate transactions - how to fix?

After updating my Bank of America accounts, the transactions for my savings account were totally re-entered. I never reconcile the account, it is simply an accounting of my balances (deposits and withdrawals). The account now contains many duplicates which I can never identify. Can I create an export of just the savings account from the most recent backup and import it into the current file which has the duplicate data. Do I need to delete the data currently in the bad account? What file format do I use for the export/import?

I suggest that instead of trying to export/import from a backup for a single account (which is very difficult to get right) that you consider doing this another way. Here are some possibilities.
- Select the gear icon menu in the register and then select "Sorting Options" -> "By order entered". This will group all of the transactions that just downloaded at the end of the register. Hopefully that will allow you to delete the old duplicate transactions.
- Another way is to restore from a backup and do the update again, but this time before doing the update make sure the account is full reconciled. That way whatever downloads will not have the R in the Clr column and will be easier to find and delete.
