Vendor Type Error

[Radar]

I recently purchased Peachtree 2009 Complete Accounting, an upgrade from a previously older version.

Under Vendor > Vendor Type you have a drop down list that lists different types of vendors. I have some types I'd like to delete and some I'd like to correct (spelling), but as usual Peachtree Help doesn't tell me how to accomplish this.

I suppose I could also enter new types, but don't know how to do that either.

Not sure how the misspelling got in. May have been from previous version I was unaware of.

Vendor Types - print a Vendor List from Reports. Use the Options Icon and then select COLUMNS and remove all check marks under SHOW. Now select Vendor ID, Vendor Name and TYPE. Note any Vendors that may be using the mis-spelled TYPES or have TYPES that you no longer use. Change any Vendor ID's to read correctly or to add new Vendor TYPES by simply typing them in. Later, click on FILE and DATA VERIFICATION and follow the prompts. This process will remove any and all unused Vendor TYPES. This is the normal process to correct this situation.

I was able to do everything as instructed, till you said

Note any Vendors that may be using the mis-spelled TYPES or have TYPES that you no longer use. Change any Vendor ID's to read correctly or to add new Vendor TYPES by simply typing them in.

I don't know what you mean by Change any Vendor ID's. There is no way to change them. You can't select anything. There in nothing to select under the columns menu and after the report is shown, there is no way to edit what is there. I can't type or enter anything.

The report itself is not editable in the manner described.

Under Vendors and Purchases, I have Peachtree showing a Vendor List. I then select the Vendors with the incorrect spelling and set their ID to nothing. After clearing everyone with incorrect spelled ID, the ID disappears all together.

I can then type a new Vendor ID in the Maintain Vendor window.

Thanks for your help.
