Is there a way to go back on one account?

Bruce Leavitt

Is it possible to restore one account in Quicken. I know it is weird question. Though I think I fixed the problem. My fault for reordering differently in the Checkbook and quicken. When reconciling the checking acct. the starting figure is different than what it should be. I know I can do an adjustment. Weird thing is I have done it 2 months in a row. Can you extract just that one acct.? If not, I will wait till next month or do an early back up and put the information back.

Or is it possible to merge two files of quicken. Go back and fix the one, and then merge it with the latest though that would merge the checking acct.

My Uncle always told me the only stupid question is one not asked: thanks Bruce

1. To answer your first question, NO, you can not restore a single account and trying to merge two files is an extremely tough process that would take a LOT of time and patience.
2. If the beginning balance of the reconcile is changing from what they were, it is because the Reconciled transactions have changed.
   The opening balance of the reconcile is the sum total of all of the R transactions in the register and is calculated at the time of reconciliation and not stored for future reference.
   What could change that # is one of the following:
   - a blank or C was changed to a R
   - an R was changed to a blank or C
   - the amount of an R was changed
   - a new transaction was marked R to begin with
   - a R transaction was deleted
