You mis-understood.   There was one donation, so there shoiuld be two transactions - the donation pledge, and the paypal deposit.    There were five transaction on the donor list after i followed your instructions.  So there were three extraneous transactions.

I feel like i'm having to jump thru hoops to account for these paypal transactions since the major change on how they were handled.   It literally used to be one click, and i was done..   This is something QB should addresss.
