.... as long as the fund says it is a tax-free exchange.

Post the ratio you are trying to achieve (x:w).

The general advice in this case, if you don't own both funds, is to change
the name/symbol as required and do a split in the closest integral ratio of
x:y. Maybe Cal will have a better answer.

Default Recording mutual fund exchange/merger

I have a mutual fund in my Money 2002 Portfolio that recently
exchanged its shares for another mutual fund shares within the family.
The fund is referring to this transaction as a merger transaction.

All they did was give me x shares at y$ in the new fund for the
current shares I had in the old fund.

What is the proper way to record this in Money 2002? Remove shares
and add shares? Transfer in and transfer out? Or something else?

Thanks,

Brent Fidler
