<p>Before you can delete a security, you must remove the security
from any accounts that hold it. Do so from the 'Securities Detail'
view of the account through the use of the 'Remove Security'
button.</p>
<p>Please let me know if you encounter any difficulties.</p>

I am having the same problem with duplicate securities. I flagged
the duplicates that I want to eliminate with "xxx" at the end, for
example (CHEVRON CORPORATIONxxx) and replaced each and every
instance of "CHEVRON CORPORATIONxxx" with "CHEVRON CORPORATION".
The system still refuses to let me delete "CHEVRON CORPORATIONxxx"
from the securities lit. Using this method, I was able to delete
several duplicate securities, but I still have 20 remaining
duplicates that I can not remove, even after eliminating all
transactions. To make matters worse, when I do an online update,
after painstakingly removing all instances of the duplicate
security, MD proceeds to download the new transactions using the
duplicate security name (flagged xxx), so now I have to go back in
and manually hand edit each and every transaction back to the
correct security. How do I get rid of all these duplicate
securities once and for all?</p></div>Bruce Johnson
