Of course you chose the one transaction that I entered into the CSV file
incorrectly.  Yes, that should have been a negative value (like all of the
others that were in the Payment column in the KMY file).

Could you please explain or point me to good documentation on the matching
string format?  What you entered below looks like a regular expression because
it uses ^, but it isn't because it uses * instead of .* to match on any
character.  Also, the GENERIC UTILITIES DISTRICT entry in my file matched on
"UTIL" but not "*UTIL*".  Payee matching didn't work for me at all when I tried
it before, and I think this is why.

(Yes, I did RTFM.  It wasn't helpful:

As to 1), no, of course I don't want all the bogus names assigned by my bank
imported as payees, but I wasn't aware that payee matching could stop that
behavior.  I turned it off because I wanted my transactions to match like they
did before.  I would still like to be able to turn this off completely and go
back to the way things were before.
