Yes, I did say that there are reinvest dividend transactions referencing 
both accounts. However, Fidelity is an investment company with a very 
large range of investments.  I have a number of different ones, but 
generally they appear in that checking account with the investment name, 
rather than Fidelity.  The majority are reinvest dividend.  There are 
also dividend entries, but the payee name for these is variable, and 
does not reference the actual investment.  I try to standardise the 
payee name, and then have to determine the actual investment concerned. 
  It is these that I am looking at now.

I'll try to have a look at that code, to try to get a better idea of 
what is supposed to happen as against what actually happens.
