I don't think so, and if you could do so, it does not seem like a
good idea to me.. But the money came from somewhere. Why not make
deposit(s) or transfers to account for the existence of the cash
used to make the buy?

If you really do not want to track the cash, take a look at the help
item "Delete the Cash Transactions register of an investment
account". I would try it with a copy of your Money file to make sure
you like the result.

I have an account which marks all investment transactions upon import as
Buy. This leaves me with a negative balance unless I enter a cash
transaction. Is there any way to bulk edit after the import is done so that
all transactions marked buy can be changed to "Add Shares" which doesn't
have this affect?

Thanks,
