I typed the first few letters in the subcategory field after expanding
splits with the F6 key. The error occurred in only one transaction of a
category containing many transactions.

editing?
How did you search? Did you use the Find command, CTRL+F, or did you type
the first few letters of the category in the Category field?

Subject: [moneytalks] Fastest way to find a split transaction for editing?
While I was reviewing my category summary using ctrl + G, I came across a
subcategory which was an obvious error. I inadvertently entered into the
subcategory field something that should have gone into the memo field. When
I attempted to enter the first few characters of this subcategory in order
to locate and edit the transaction, the resulting transactions did not
include it. I realized that what I was looking for was part of a split
transaction but when I searched in the subcategory field after displaying
splits by pressing F6, I still was unsuccessful in locating the transaction
in order to edit it. I finally had to export my entire Money Talks history
as a csv file where I located the transaction using Excel.
Does anyone know of an easier way within Money Talks to locate a particular
split transaction?
Thanks in advance for your help.
