Thank you Allan, I appreciate your advice.  Yes I'm referring only to
banking.  OFX is what I get with what I usually select, which is
Microsoft Money 2002, but CSV sounds promising (I notice you're the
author of that plugin!).  I think I'll give it a go.

I'm using 4.7.1 and that's on Manjaro so I assume it's the latest
release of KMM.

One more question - would there be any implications to suddenly
switching the file type that I use to import transactions?

Kind regards,
Huw
