Default Re: Capital gains distribution shows up as a loss in report

I tried adding an entry manually, as you suggested, and that works as
expected. The only difference I see is that in the error case, I downloaded
the transaction from the brokerage firm. Wonder if this makes a difference.
Thanks.

Niranjan.

I entered a "S-Term Cap Gains Dist" for a fund in Money 2004 as a
positive number. I reset
Reports-> ReportsGallery-> Taxes-> CapitalGains and viewed the report.
The distribution showed as a positive number. I double-clicked the
entry into the report and got an Edit Transaction box for
Activity:"S-Term Cap Gains Dist" and a Total that was a positive
number that matched the transaction I entered.

Is this similar to what you have other than the showing of the
negative value in the report? You might try resetting your report.

Default Capital gains distribution shows up as a loss in report

Hi,
I recorded a distribution from a mutual fund as an "S-Term Cap Gains
Dist". When I look at the capital gains report, it shows up as a negative
number i.e. (...). Am I using the wrong category? This is Money 2004
Premium. Thanks.

Niranjan.
