Art,
I have the problem constantly with Smith Barney. Payments from Unit
Trusts consistently are downloaded as Misc Income. Off the top of my
head, this happens 100% with tax free UTs, but I think there are other
dividends/interest that download improperly (for me and you). Capital
gain distributions are frequently categorized as dividends. Everything
is correct on the Smith Barney site. It really is a PITA.
