REALLY CONFUSED: partial IRA, partial Roth IRA Gary 09-23-2006

I hold an IRA at Fidelity, consisting of Fidelity Low Priced Stock
(FLPSX).

I converted some of the shares to a Roth IRA.

How do I tell Quicken that some of my Fidelity FLPSX has an investment
goal of IRA, where others have an investment goal of RothIRA?

My objective is to be able to get reports showing IRA balances
separate from RothIRA balances. Investment Goal seems to be the most
convenient way of identifying this. I want, as well, to show the tax
consequences of the IRA to RothIRA conversion.

Create a new Quicken Roth IRA account. Transfer the cash you
got from selling shares in the traditional IRA to the Roth IRA
account. Buy shares in the new Roth IRA account. Track the two
retirement accounts by ... *account*. (That should also
parallel what happened in the real-world.)
