[moneydance] Incomplete Transaction Download

[Sean Reilly]

This can happen with OFX if your bank uses duplicate transaction  
IDs.  If a transaction ID from the OFX/QFX file is already associated  
with a transaction in your register then moneydance assumes it was  
already downloaded from an overlapping file.

It is possible to check this manually by doing the following:
  1. opening the downloaded OFX file in a text editor
  2. find the FITIDs (Financial Institution Transaction Identifier)  
of suspect transactions
  3. export your data from Moneydance into a Moneydance/XML file
  4. open the XML file in a text editor
  5. search for the FITIDs from step 2 in the XML file

Or you could email the above files to me (not the list!) and I could  
check it out for you, deleting the information when finished.

Thanks,
Sean
