Posted by Fred J on July 6, 2009, 11:12 am Please log in for more thread options I have been using Quicken for umteen years. I am holding the original stock certificates but the  reinvested dividends are held by the agent. Those shares I can sell through the agent. However, I need a discount broker to sell the original stock(s). I am wondering what strategies people have used to find the cost basis of the original stock purchases? Thank you.
