    posted on multiple categroisation as it's essentially mutiple edits

    To me trying to learn gnucash this is a must. gnu feels like a one way street for data import, get it perfect first time or you are in trouble. The inability to multiple delete or amend is horrible. You can't even use the keyboard to delete rows.

    Many things I like about this so have persevered but this perfect everytime is a killer. I just uploaded some transactions, did all the transfer accounts and then realised I had a mistake in my upload. Quicker to delete the account than the offending rows [as you cannot multiple edit], so deleted the account and said delete all transactions. But gnu doesn't delete the double entry transactions, so now I am left with loads of imbalance rows and loads of rows in the transfer accounts which I can't easily delete. And that's after uploading 4 other accounts perfectly.
    So now I am at a loss, manual click and delete or just drop the whole thing and all my setup. OK my mistake but I am a human and humans make mistakes. Can I delete in the base data itself?
