I have just been informed that one of my Scudder Mutual funds will be merged with another Scudder fund soon. This will be a none tax change. What is the proper way to make this transfer in Q07??
Mutual fund merges

In "Enter Transactions" one of the options (near the bottom) is "Corporate Merger." Use that.
I had the same issue. I have 2007 Premere and have the mutual fund set up as an seperate mutuak fund account. I do not see the corporate merge option. I ended up doing a name change and a stock split (to correct the number of dhares). Then edit the security to fix the ticker tape symbol. I believe this will preserve your cost basis information but you have to be careful to not lose your historical price information.
