I had been using my check register to input my split expense transactions.
Now when I input the check number, date, payee, amount of check and
click the split box, the columns and titles disappear!  When you
double clike you see the check and check stub without the columns and
titles. I have tried to enter $175 total and split three ways to
telephone, office supplies and postage, but it only accepted the first
account for the total amount of the check!

The split function for deposits is ok.

My QuickBooks Basic 2004 is an update for QuickBooks 1999 is there a
box I shouldlook for to check or to uncheck.
