| help with dividends & cap. gains I've read thru Money's Help files but still need some clarification on the exact process for entering dividends and capital gains received and then automatically reinvested. It seems to me that in order to accurately record these transactions I need to enter two transactions for each distribution: one that records the receipt and a second that records the reinvestment. Is this correct? |
