I think (hope) we're saying the same thing !!

To clarify reference points - the data in MD is to be reconciled with the
corresponding bank statement.

If you are using MD or any software to reconcile, the data that you're
reconciling
should come from another source "OTHER" than the source that you're
reconciling TO.
Otherwise, why bother to reconcile. It will ALWAYS agree, and if your bank
NEVER makes
a mistake there is no need to go through the reconciliation procedure.

Hope this is clearer.

But I was asking Larry, what is it that I don't understand.
