Please log in for more thread options Hi John,
This isn't the first download to the new file. I download transactions
every day from my brokerage account. Invariably I have new stocks that I
traded during the prior day. If it doesn't find a match, it just adds the
new ones. In my other quicken file, it always asks me whenever there is a
new stock. I can't figure out why downloads from the same broker to two
separate quicken files act differently.
A puzzlement?
