I appreciate the response but I would think with all the other tax tracking
and calculating features within Money this increasingly common transaction
would have a cleaner solution. Your solution is simple and workable however
I really do not like computer generated financial reports that I then have to
overwrite with manual corrections or notes to show what really happened.
But, if that is the limitation on Money to record such a transaction at this
time then so be it. By the way, I am running Money Premium which touts
itself to be the solution for handling investment transactions and records.

Others will probably give you a more sophisticated answer, but frankly, I
don't think that one can expect a simple money managemnt program like MONEY
to be you tax accountant. Peronally, I would simply record a sell and let
MONEY show the difference as a LT Capital Gain. Just because it shows up as
a CG in MONEY does not mean that you have to report it to the IRS if the tax
on that gain is waived by statute.

I am looking for the proper transaction procedure to record appreciated stock
donated to a charity. The transaction allows for reduction in the shares of
stock contributed at the market price recorded by the charity and showing a
deductible charity expense. How is this done?
