I am starting a new thread on this issue as the last got into territory that did not respond to problem. The issue concerned an added $40,000 cash to an investment acc't. Well today, that $40,000 cash is back. This time however, I have '06p on a second computer that I am keeping up to date & can compare.
This acc't was opened in 1991, it has several mutual funds, a mm acc't & a huge # of transactions. In 1998 on 2 occasions, 10,000 shares were removed from the mm acc't ($10,000 each). I have no memory why it was done in this fashion, can find no transfer to indicate where the $20,000 went & unfortunately did not make a memo to explain. When I check the '06 investment register, the cash total for these 2 events is $0; the cash total for the 1st in '07 is $20,000 & the 2nd share removal in '07 shows a $40,000 cash balance. So instead of just having $20,000 less in the mm acc't I now have an additional $40,000 cash. Wish the world of finance really worked like that.
What I consider to be really strange is that I know that as of last Thursday, 09/07, that $40,000 cash had NOT been added to the acc't. I have been updating the '06 data set on Thursdays & in the process run an acc't balance report to ensure that the information on both computers is the same.
I experimented w/the 2 incorrect transactions in '07 & changed to sellx, transferring to a non-existent acc't; this got rid of $40,000, but doesn't accurately reflect what happened.
