I am using Quicken XG 2006.
My husband is buying shares in a company that I have already own shares in. Quicken insists on naming the stock as one of mine, rather than the individualized name I prefer for his investments. I have used the same ticker symbol for the stocks. My naming system is like this:
B.Telus (for mine) R.Telus (for my husband)
When I enter his purchase, I have created a new security and named it R. Telus. But as soon as I press Enter to complete the transaction, the name of the security reverts to B.Telus.
I've worked around this by slightly differing the ticker symbol, which means I have to individually enter prices in my portfolio list.
These problems seem to have arisen after my upgrade from Quicken 2000 to Quicken XG 2006. Is there something obvious that I have missed?
Thanks for any ideas Bev
