Unable to enter stock purchase

May 28, 2005 1 Replies

I am useing Quicken 2002 and am trying to enter the buying of U.S. stocks in one of my accounts. The account is setup for Canadian currency. When I start to enter the companys name.I keep getting this message."please select a security whose currency matches the currency of your account" Can anyone offer any advice as to why this is happening.



Thanking you in advance Gerry


The message is clear. You cannot buy US stocks into a canadian currency account. Set up a separate account for US stock purchases.
