<p>The 'Unable to delete...' message is usually an indication that the security is held in 1 or more investment accounts.</p>
<p>Go to the 'Securities Detail' view of your investment account.<br>
Click the 'Remove Security' button in the upper, right-hand quadrant.<br>
In the resulting form, click open the drop-down list.<br>
If the security in question is listed there, select it<br>
Click OK.</p>
<p>Repeat the above steps for any other investment accounts that you may have.</p>
<p>Once the security is no longer held in any of your investment accounts, you should be able to delete it from Moneydance.</p>
<p>Safe computing 101 dictates that you should make a backup of your data before deleting anything from your financial program.</p>

<p>This is one area of Moneydance that consistently confounds me.</p></div>Lisatag:infinitekind.tenderapp.com,2009-01-14:Comment/480933442020-02-17T02:21:26Z2020-02-17T02:21:26ZUnable to delete unused securities<div><p>Hi Lisa,</p>
<p>You're welcome. I'm glad to hear that it worked out.</p>
<p>I confess that, in the beginning, the process of adding & removing securities was confounding to me as well.</p>
<p>Thank you for reporting back with your results.</p>
