Enter one transaction, the total shares owned at the average cost per share
to that point at a date prior to the last purchase. Will mess up capital
gains reports but will keep the cost accurate. It's a trade off.

I recently created a new money file and need help setting up (adjusting) an
investment account. I've used Money for years but had to create a new file
due to corruption in the original file. I've set up my Roth IRA account but
wish to preserve the original cost basis. There are years worth of
transactions that I don't want to re-enter. Is there any way to accurately
reflect the cost without going back and re-entering all the transactions?

Thanks,

Dana

I would Start-> Search your drives for *.mbf files. Those are Money
backup files. If you can restore one of those, that should have some
useful data.

Otherwise, if I understand the question, no.
