Default Re: Mutual Fund Merger

Hello Cal Leaner,
I have M2006 question also:
I am experience the bug in a Money 2006 Premium.
I am using MS Money 2006.
My Problem: "Portfolio Manager" (PM) doesn't show all closed transaction
compare to "Investment Transactions" (IT). Many closed Investments
transactions for Buy/Sell stocks and options from IT don’t show up in PM. I
have multiple accounts from the different brokers, like Ameritrade, eTrade,
BrownCo, Merrill Lynch.
Its effect all of them.
I do have turn ON and OFF and ON again "Show Closed Transactions" and "Show
closed accounts". I did run File-> Fix Money File-> Quick and Standard - it
doesn't fix anything.
I used MS Money versions from 2002 to 2006.
This problem starts only with 2006.
I found many of post about problem similar to my.
I found kind of fix for this problem - if I delete one part of the invisible
closed Trans, (like delete "Sell to Close") and manually add it back, this
close trans. became visible in PM and all trans. for this stock or option. To
fix problem for all other invisible in PM closed trans., I have to repeat
delete/re-create steps again for each one of them. It shouldn't work like
this. PM should match IT if I select "Show Closed Transactions".
Do you have a fix for this problem?

Thanks.

Thanks Cal, your rapid reply is much appreciated, and very clear. After the
reorganization goes through, I may be back in touch for help with the "split
ratio integers," if I can't get those ratios determined myself.

Thanks again, Dirk

If your mutual fund is involved in a tax-free reorganization

1. Do an appropriate split of the fund. You will need to input
the split ratio a ratio of integers (1 ... 65535). Post the ratio
you want to achieve if you would like a suitable pair of integers.

2. In the investment details, change the symbol.

3. Change the investment name.

4. Add a brief comment to the investment to explain the change.

Default Mutual Fund Merger

As of next week one of my mutual funds is being merged into another mutual
fund. This will be a non-taxable transaction in which the cost basis of the
original shares will be maintained in the new mutual fund. How can I make
this change in Microsoft Money? If I sell all the original shares and buy
the shares in the new fund at the new price on the transfer day, the cost
basis will be lost. I cannot simply "rename" the fund because the share
price will be very different.
