Tony,

While waiting for a better answer, have you thought about using a  
different payee for the different transfers you do, or maybe just for  
the ones you want to report on?  Then you can filter the report by  
payee.  Note that in a transfer, the "transfer to" and "transfer from"  
are accounts, not payees, so they are not really the same - it's just  
that the same person owns both accounts.  In transfers, I generally  
leave the payee blank, but creating one or more payees for this purpose  
would at least let you get the report you want.  (The payee would go in  
the To or From field, not the Transfer to or Transfer from.)
