Please log in for more thread options Hi, Sylvia.
I was afraid you were going to ask that. :^{
I don't think I ever actually moved shares between accounts; if I did, it
was several years ago, before Quicken changed a few things. John Pollard or
someone else is hereby invited to jump in and correct or complete my
instructions.
I THINK you would open your Duke account and use Remove Shares. Then open
your new Spectra...NOPE! I found it just a little further down in the Enter
transaction drop-down menu: It's "Shares Transferred Between Accounts".
Start in your Duke account and move the Spectra to your new Spectra account.
Let us know how this works for you.
