Cal, I recalled my message (apparently didn't work that well) because I
re-read your post and you had already answered my question.

Yes, you are correct that the end result of the above is no-change.
However, I tried this and when I deleted the split, Money took the
pre-split transaction I had entered (100 shares [at] $10), and adjusted it
to 50 shares [at] $20 and if I had re-entered the split manually Money
would have just put it back to 100 [at] $10. So I didn't go this route.

The former.

Works:
Delete the split. Enter the transaction using the pre-split numbers.
Enter the split again.

------------------------------
Works:
Have the split recorded in Money. Enter the pre-split transaction
using split-adjusted quantity. Enter the commission. Enter the
total, which does not change. Let Money compute the per-share price.

-----------------------------
Does not do anything:
Delete the split. Don't do something with the transactions. Enter
the same split again.

UpdatePrices-> UpdatePricesManually Look through the
table and find the entries in the Source column that say "Stock
Split". Delete the split

OK will do. So what would happen if I had already entered the original
buy transaction of Aug 15, and updated the prices in October when the
stock split? Would Money have modified the number of shares from 100 to
200 automatically, or would I have had to delete the original entry at
that time and then re-entered it?

From the Help description, it seems that I might actually be able to
delete the split information and enter it again...that might do the
trick also?

200 shares at $5. It is possible to delete the split, enter the
100[at]10, and re-enter the split. But that would be more work.

Given a company's stock has already split, and that I'm catching up on
my statements from prior to the split, do I enter pre-split stock
numbers for those older transactions, or post-split numbers?

Example:

Say the stock split 2-for-1 on Oct-01-2005
I'm catching up now on my Aug 2005 statement
Investment transaction of "buy 100 shares" of Aug 15, 2005 [at] $10/share

Should I enter that now as 200 shares [at] $5, or 100 [at] $10?

I entered them as 100 [at] $10, and I saw an "s" appended to the price, but
the quantity still shows as 100. If I attempt to manually enter a
2-for-1 split, it says that one split has already been recorded for that
day. Money knows about the split probably because I update prices
online, but it doesn't seem to show me that the 100 shares are now 200.

Should I delete that buy entry and enter a new one with the post-split
quantity/price?
