running Q2004 - one of my funds - Vanguard midcap - VIMSX - is showing zero for the 1-month, 3-month and 12-month percentages under the Recent Perf selections... Any ideas what would cause this for this single fund ? I've only seen zeroes reported for things like cash & MMkt funds with fixed NAV.

I ran a small test in Q2004H&B. Bought 1 share of VIMSX on Jan
3, 2005 for the closing price on that date of $15.23. Downloaded historical prices. Checked the Portfolio tab and found 1, 3, and 12 month gain % of zero ... as you report.Then I Edited VIMSX in the Security List, changing it so it would *not* "Use Average Cost"; the Portfolio tab now shows non-zero values for 1, 3 and 12 month gain %.
I have not attempted to verify that the percentages are correct.
If you intend to change the "Use Average Cost" setting, I would be cautious. Heed the Quicken warning ... and make sure you backup before you do it.
tnx John - resolution sounds familiar - maybe we had to do that on other funds... I'll take a look.
