You may wish to double check your exchange rates, both in the overall
currency rates (tools-options) and in the individual transaction exchange
rates.

Good luck

I'm having problems with one of my reports. It's a YTD Capital Gains report
and all the trasactions except on show the right amround. I've tried
deleting and re-entering the Buy/Sell transactions for this investement with
no results.

It shows a Purchase Cost of 782.2 and a Sale Proceeds of 925.67, however the
Gain/Loss field shows -0.0014. Clearly it should be 143.47. Any idea how to
fix this?

I'm runing MS Money 2006 Canadian edition and the Investement in question is
in US Dollars. However, all other US investements show the propper Gain/Loss.
