Entering Paycheck Info as Split after online reconciliation

I recently upgraded to Q06. I've been using Q since 1992, and I'm totally befuddled with a problem on entering paychech info as a split after online reconciliation.

Here's what I do.

1) My check is direct deposited into my bank account, and I just download my transactions using Quicken online. 2) I have set up the paycheck feature, but I can't figure out how to input the split data (shows up as '--Form--') AFTER my check has been downloaded.

Surely it can't be that complicated, but I'm at a loss... TIA for any and all suggestions.

"Enter" it BEFORE your check has been downloaded. (And have the downloaded transaction "Match" the register transaction.)

Let me rephrase my previous reply: Enter it before you "Accept" the downloaded transaction.

Thanks John, I appreciate the advice.

I'll need to tell my wife not to accept it too! To me, it's a pain having to leave the downloaded transaction unaccepted until the stub comes in the mail. I don't understand why Quicken won't allow a right-click kind of feature to drop in the paycheck data any time? I'm not a programmer, but it shouldn't be that difficult.

Thanks again for your time and assistance.
