Deleting memorized transactions

I have a number of payees I needed only once, and others whose names I mis-typed and corrected. Now the extraneous payees and the typos all show up as clutter when I attempt to use autofill after typing the first letter(s) for a new payment or deposit. How do I tell the system to forget or ignore the irrelevant entries?

    Hi allanshapiro

    You cant tell Moneydance to forget things.

    The best you can do is use the Extension Find and Replace to find all the transaction that contain typos in a description (payee) and replace them with the correct description. Do this for each typo variant. Once you replace all instances of a typo description it will disappear from the auto fill list.

    Hope this helps.

    Hi derekkent23,

    Thank you. I guess this a limitation of a program architecture that doesn't
    maintain a database. I downloaded the extension and will give it a shot.
