Q05 Premier - Update Cost Basis Paul 08-10-2006

 I recently re-allocated my 401(k) portfolio and downloaded the
transactions into Quicken 2005 Premier. The "adds" worked fine, but
the debits / "removal"s subtracted money from the fund as expected;
however, the "cost basis" did not automatically update to relfect the
reductions/withdrawls. As a result, Costs Basis vs. Portfolio Value is
incorrect. Any advice/insight as to how to update/correct the "cost
basis" to reflect the correct total would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks! Paul

 Did you buy some securities and sell some others? If so, shouldn't
that be done with Buy and Sell transactions rather than Add and
Remove?
