Money 2006, Yes!

Go to the Details for the investment that currently has the .KCQDJ
(such as by right-clicking any reference, and going to the
investment. Than blank the symbol (get rid of all of the
characters). That will free up .KCQDJ.

It is a good idea to blank the symbol for an option when it expires.

Also expect to change the symbol in the final year when you hold a
LEAPS option.

Default Options Symbols get recycled annually - can't reuse symbol

Hi,
Has anyone else had this problem and is there a solution:

Money 2006
I have a stock that I frequently sell options on. Options symbols are
reused on an annual basis. For example on KLAC the April 50 Call is always
..KCQDJ. This symbol is resued from one year to the next. My problem occurs
when I download the statements from my broker. Since I purchased and sold
the same symbol last year, it won't let me reuse the symbol

Any suggestions?
