Return of capital

I have a few investments (GNMAs, etc.) which periodically return partial amounts of the capital. It's not income, and it would seem that this should reduce the cost basis. Is there a way to make this happen? Should this be recorded as a partial sale or something?

There is a "Return of Capital" transaction in the pull down for transaction types in the pop-up window for the investment account. Does that not do what you want? =Jim

I did the math. Looks like it works after all, even the downloaded transactions. Thanks, just didn't look right, but it is. Jim
