--- Comment #2 from lp.allard.1 at gmail.com ---
" I wonder what your locale symbol is, and whether on importing, you selected
the symbol which matches your file, i.e. the '.' symbol?"

When you say "symbol" you mean decimal separator? For cents?  In North America
(US or Canadian dollar) we use "dot" to separate integers and decimals..  I
know in Europe, they often use comma (,)...

My locale?  where can I change that?  I suppose you are right, somehow KMM
thinks the dot is only a floating (unimportant) character and somehow strips it
off from the amount resulting in the multiplication by 100 as I stated
initialy.

This is highly impractical. That means, provided I understood you correctly,
that before importing transactions from a CSV file, I need to change my locale
to the corresponding decimal separator and import, then revert my locale to my
previous setting?

I propose that the CSV import or KMM (whichever is required) treats dots or
commas as the same: cents , pennies, whatever ....
