When I highlight the 1000 share sale in the left pane, and type 1000 in the "Shares Allocated" box beside the 3289, my "Total" shows 1000 and "Shares Remaining" shows 0. That seems to be correct, but when I hit "OK" the "You have allocated an incorrect number of shares" pops up. The 1000 disappears from my "Shares Allocated," and my "Total" and "Shares Remaining" change to 0 and the number of shares sold in the LAST of my three sales, say 5426.81. I've tried allocating that last sale first, but can't make that work either. This is a real problem for me. I hope someone can help with it. -- ---John Registered Linux User #291592 Kubuntu Maverick Meerkat, KDE 4.5.1 _______________________________________________ moneydance-info mailing list [email protected] http://moneydance.com/mailman/listinfo/moneydance-info
