Are you identifying them as "mutual funds" or as "stocks"? Technically,
they're the latter, but you then can't record earnings as interest, but only
as dividends. This is a real problem if the fund holds tax-exempt bonds.

I'm using Money 2005. I have some closed-end bond funds that are
traded on the NYSE. For the purpose of correctly classifying them in
my asset allocation, how can I get them to NOT be classified as
mid-cap stocks? Also in the allocation, these should show up as
"debt", not 100% "equity".

I'm aware of the trick of creating a new investment with the right
class, converting all of the existing transactions to the new
investment, and then deleting the old investment. However, even as a
"mutual fund" I cannot specify the correct asset allocation because
the "100% bonds" that I enter in the investment details automatically
gets reset by Money within a few seconds of hitting done. Which of
the few available asset classes would actually work correctly? This
shouldn't be so difficult.
