Yes, it's a no.

Exactly. I have no idea why or what to do about it.

Bruce.

I'll take that as a no. Odd that Money would ascribe a value to "nothing".

It's confusing. I assumed it was going to be simple when I first posted,
but it's mushroomed since then.

Correct. No Investments. If I go to the Account Summary it says "This
account currently has no investments in it. You can add a new investment
here."

- quote -

Yes. If you go to the Account List, it shows the account balance as $0.01.

- quote -

Yes. The Account Register shows Account Value as $0.01 at the lower right.
The associated Cash Account shows an Ending Balance of $0.00 at the lower
right.

Bruce.

I'm still trying to follow this.

Money thinks there are no investments in the account.

Money thinks the combined value for the Investment+Investment Cash accounts
is $0.01.

Money does or does not show the $0.01 as the Ending Balance of the
Investment Cash Account register?

This account is littered with transfers from a payroll deposits to a
checking account.

My understanding is that the only way to do an import correctly and get the
transfers right, is to import all the affected accounts at the same time.

Since the checking account is littered with transfers to other accounts like
credit cards, paypal, investments, etc., I'd basically have to export almost
every account I have and reimport everything.

All for a penny. :-(

That hosed the Account Worth Over Time chart as you might suspect it would.
I restored from a backup.

It's looking like I'll just have to close it as is, penny and all. I don't
know if there will be long term implications of doing so.

No change. The penny is still there and I can't delete the Add Shares 1000.

That was unexpected. It said it couldn't add the split due to insufficent
disk space! The drive has 58GB available.

This one added but the account register was hosed. The share counts all
changed to 65535. But the penny was still there and the Add Shares 1000 was

No change.

I removed the split and the price zeroing and the register is back the way
it was.

There's no symbol because it's not a real stock/fund. It's a 401(k)

Try File-> RepairMoneyFile-> QuickFileRepair again.

Consider a 65535 for 1 split to see if you can un-hide that thing.
Consider a 1 for 65535 split....

Try setting the price to zero and blanking the symbol.

Didn't work. Using the Account Update to set 0 merely added a Remove Shares
of 999.99 to the register. Now the penny is back again. I'm back where I
started.

The investment register shows an Account Value of $0.01 and the associated
Cash Register shows an Ending Balance of $0.00.

Thanks Dick. That's where the penny was coming from, as a result of me
changing the Sell from 1234.55 to 1234.56. So I fixed the Cash Register and
now the account value is exactly $1000 (1000 shares).

But I still can't delete the Add Shares 1000 I added. The mentioned error
prevents me from doing so. The only way I can delete the Add Shares is to
change the Sell 1234.56 back to 12345.55.

Bruce.

Check the Cash register...

Update. It seems Money thinks I have zero shares in that investment which
is why it refuses to show in the Account Summary, and so no Account Update.

So I decided to try an Add Shares of 1000 shares (for a date prior to the
12345.55 Sell). Now the investment shows in Account Summary but the amount
of shares is exactly 1000. I've extended the decimal places and it shows
1000.00000 exactly. No fractional shares at all.

So I went back to the register and now I can change the Sell from 1234.55 to
1234.56 but the Account Value doesn't change from $1000.01 when I do. The
penny is stuck.

So I try deleting the 1000 Add Shares and it refuses. Says "Some or all of
of 'ING Retirement' aquired with this transaction have been sold or removed.
Before you can delete this transaction for the purchase of or addition of
'ING Retirement', you must first delete any sale or removal transactions."

If I first change the Sell 1234.56 back to 1234.56 then I can delete the Add
Shares 1000 again, but that just puts me back where I was, stuck at $0.01.

I've tried selling:

1234.551
1234.5501
1234.55001
1234.550001

Any more zeros and Money just drops the extra digits. No amount > 1234.55
will sell. Yet, $0.01 is still shown in the register Account Total.

- quote -

The account name shows in the portfolio, but no investments do. The
underneath the account name is blank and shows no investments.

I can't find any way to display whatever shares there may or may not be in
that investment.

Bruce.

Bruce,

Is it possible to sell 1234.551shares or 1234.552 shares and so on.

It's possible that you have a fractional share in the account that Money
is displaying as .01.

You may be able to see the fractional share by changing the current view
of the portfolio with that account in it, and changing the Quantity column
to more than 2 decimals.

Let us know how you make out.

Uh oh. That explains it. There's nothing on that screen. I go to the
Account Summary page and it's largely blank (except for the menus). On that
page it just says "The account currently has no investments in it. You can
add new investments here". As a result of the blank page, there's no
Account Update at the bottom.

Other accounts do have that Account Update at the bottom, just not the one I
need to zero.

Any ideas?

Bruce.

Account Summary|Account Update (hidden at the bottom). Set shares to 0.

I have a 401(k) account with 1234.56 shares in it at a $1 a share. I want
to sell all 1234.56 shares, but if I try Money won't let me do that,
claiming that would cause "the share balance to go negative at some point".

It will let me sell 1234.55 shares, leaving $0.01 in the account. I'm
trying to get it to zero before I close the account. How can I get rid of
that last penny?

Thanks.
Bruce.
